You are not that long into the process, a WoM is to speed things up when you should have obtained a response.

Yea.. but in my own sense I have been waiting since 2018.. what I see as the problem is that the embassy nor USCIS informed me about any finding of misrep. How was I allowed by the system to file an I-130 and go thru the entire damn process until my wife was given a permanent bar at the interview? If they had informed me I would've appealed it or at least not wasted my money and three years of agonizing wait.

The simple answer is that is not how the system works

Yep.  That is what Hacking said.  Seems to me that a well-crafted waiver for serve hardship (which is what I hope the attorney addressed) is the path of least resistance at this point.

I do agree with that, I differ on the likely result.

I tend to fast forward though the shows focussing on the more interesting stuff and of course to see if @Rocio0010 is on, she was yesterday.

 

There were quite a few today and of course unlike Jim I have time to think about it, where he gets his percentages from I have no idea.

They would need a letter from a respected high level religious leader with credentials to certify that it was not equivalent to a wedding. Thats why I keep saying his waiver needs to includes proof of that sort

So I would send it in as additional evidence? Because the waiver has already been filed.

Has your wife requested FOIA for her immigration history. Have you been able to see the redacted information from the first FOIA request?

I wouldn't do anything until you know exactly what was written in the redacted section. Also, consult with a lawyer who specializes in waivers.

Just like Hacking @Rocio0010 has a special text message service. You get notice when Hacking is on BUT ALSO she tells you if she will be on or not... you should consider signing up. I found the first caller the most interesting. "Sucks for me".

The waiver was filed some time back.

 

There were actually 2 of them, the first one confused me as how was he able to go through the I 485 process, they ask for evidence of your legal entry and he said he had none. Then I thought maybe DACA and he used AP, but not sure how he could have got DACA with the Drugs and Gun conviction. And he did not mention DACA.

 

Who told you this was a good idea?

I thought your Lawyer filed the I 601 waiver a few months ago?

“If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles. If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat. If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle.”

Yes but what your saying abt 485 and DACA isn't abt me

You may not have seen it but they were on the same show you were on.

“If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles. If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat. If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle.”
