Really they R reporting 6 mths delays and waivers can take 7 up to 12 mths now


Each case is different how fast your waiver gets approved depends a lot on each individual case. If you have provided enough hardship evidence to go with your hardship letter. Each statement made needs to be backed up by paper evidence. Also your criminal history if any. My husband has no criminal history whatsoever and was deported for overstaying a voluntary departure. Sometimes if USCIS thinks they need more paper evidence that will slow down the process of waiver adjudication they will send you a letter of what docs they need from you. Also missing signatures but if all is a good expect to get an approval soon. Good luck!

Si when did you send the i601 and how long it took for you to get approved


I sent my husbands waivers on July 2 2013, and he was approved Dec 17 2013. Right now if you check the USCIS website for timeline on I601 only it says 6 months to process. We are filing thru El Salvador consulate and that consulate is the sloooowest out there I swear. We have been waiting 2 months for my husbands visa and nothing yet. Sigh. Some ppl have reported waiting 3-5 months for visa issuence.

It's been 1 week my husband send passport in to El Salvador embassy and status changes to AP on the CEAC website. Anyone here know how long his case will be in AP before they issue visa? Feeling impatient. :(


So husband was in AP for 2 weeks up until yesterday he got another instruction email from El Salvador embassy asking him to redo medicals. Thankfully my husband was able to go in today and get the medicals done. Dr. Claudia told husband results should be in the embassy tomorrow. How soon do you think he will get his visa issued?

My case was first the I601 and the next day was my I212 no alway is gonna be at the same time

 

 

So I have GREAT NEWS husbnad and I called USCIS and they told us both waivers where approved on Dec 12, 2013 is just the system had not updated yet. I got Approval notice for the I601 3 days later and now just waiting on approval notice for I212. Now waiting for IL from El Salvador Embassy hope that does not take a long time, I seen cases of ppl who have waited a long time to get their visa issued anywhere from 2-4 months that is a long time!  I want my husband home ASAP!! :)

So you got notification of I601 approval first then the I212 soon after not same day??? I'm in the same boat I601 got approved Dec 12,2013 but not I212 how long do you think it will take them to approve I212? I sent my husbands both waivers at the same time.

I have a question regarding waiver approval for I 601 and I212. My husbands
I601 was approved on December 12, 2013 we are happy but worried bc we also have a i212 waiver still pending we sent in both waivers at the same time on July 2, 2013. How soon will we have an answer. I was thinking that both waivers would be approved together.

Hello! Orieta congrats on waivers approval. We are also filing thru ES. Sent in waivers on July 1st I hear now they are taking 7 months to approve. I'm new to this forum. I am a member of a group on Facebook called. "El Salvador I2US members" for anyone filing thru ES add yourself to it so we can help each other out with waiver/visa process.

yes, I've emailed about once a month, and get the standard... "we can't do anything until you are out of administrative processing..."
 
just tired of feeling like my hands are tied and I can't do anything to help the situation.




Have you tried getting your senator involved?

My husband is from El Salvador and both I601&i212 have been approved Dec 12th. We have waited 3 weeks and counting have not received IL email from embassy. I have called the call center and emailed cogensansal and only answer we get is to wait 90 days. How long did your family wait post waiver approval to get back home?


CASE UPDATE: I601/I212 approved Dec 12,2013. Got approval notices for both waivers Dec 17th.
Got first Instruction letter email Jan 7,2014 asked only for husbands passport. Husband sent passport via cargo express same day Jan 7,2014. Embassy got passport next day Jan 8th. Case on CEAC website went from ***REFUSED to READY on Jan 6th to AP Jan 7th thru Jan 21. (On Jan 21 case went from AP/READY thru Feb 5th)and Jan 22 husband got 2nd Instruction Letter email he needed updated medicals (which we knew had expired last ones where taken in April 2013) husband was able to redo medical next day Jan 23 with DR.Claudia. Dr. Sent embassy results following day Jan 24. On Feb 6th case went to AP AGAIN!!
Anyone have any idea how long it takes embassy to review updated medicals and issue visa?
