Timeline of Persecution Waiver

[Sam9211 0]

Hello , 

I am planning to apply for Persecution waiver. Would someone be able to share their timeline?  I  came to USA on J1 visa with two year rule , I came to America on a semester exchange program which was fully funded by US government.  If someone has gotten persecution waiver approved if they can share their timeline or give some information about persecution waiver.

 

I have pending asylum case, I also applied for hardship waiver which was denied. So hoping to get approved for persecution waiver.

 

Thank you

I have never heard of a persecution waiver on here, hardship seems common.

A J-1 may seek a waiver if he or she “would be subject to persecution on account of race, religion, or political opinion.” To win a persecution claim, an applicant must show that it is probable the applicant will be subjected to persecution. If USCIS finds persecution is a genuine probability, then the State Department’s Waiver Review Division will make it’s determination. Under the regulation found at 2 CFR 41.63(b), after the Waiver Review Division determines that the persecution claim is meritorious, it is to review the program, policy and foreign relations aspects of the case, including consulting with the Bureau of Human Rights and Humanitarian Affairs of the Department of State before making a favorable recommendation.
