There is no expediting the i601 waivers applications?

yes...and i601 was submitted and received. 

 

 

issue is, we live in a dangerous place, pretty much a war zone, and we need to leave asap.

You can call in an expedite . See link. Hardship must be to the USC…

sounds like you just want the COVID-19 vaccine exemption or is it for other medical grounds.

How to Make an Expedite Request

For most cases, you may request an expedite by contacting the USCIS Contact Center or by asking Emma.  (You can access Emma by clicking on the Ask Emma icon on the top right of this page). You need to explain why you need expedited processing. You also generally need to provide your receipt number to the USCIS Contact Center so they can send your request to the office that has your application or petition. If you have a USCIS online account and have access to secure messaging, you may select “expedite” as the reason for your inquiry and submit your request there.

You generally need to justify your expedite request with evidence. When communicating with the Contact Center, you will be asked about supporting documentation. You should be prepared to supply this to the office processing your case.

If you have a USCIS online account, you should upload evidence through your online account to support your expedite request in addition to calling the USCIS Contact Center. If you send a secure message, we will ask you to confirm that you have uploaded evidence in your account. If we receive an expedite request without evidence to support it, we will send you instructions on how to submit the evidence.
