I understand. My frustration is that since April 2022 the DOS issued a favorable recommendation on my case, but USCIS has yet to approve the waiver, which is very weird given typical processing times where, after a FR, you are supposed to receive the final approval letter 2-4 weeks later, but 11 months and counting. I have tried multiple times to contact USCIS, via online inquiries, Ombudsman's office, and nothing. The only answer I get is that my case is still pending.
