Handing in Waivers -Quarantine and timelines - Post here

J Rogersposted 3 years ago

Post real application stories here. Not "A guy told me" or "a few of my clients" but specific client experiences so others can see accurately what is happening.

There are rare exceptions, but whether you file a waiver, or a waiver AND an I-212 you simply get a waiver in return. That's why I tell clients to wait. Its an extra $930USD for the exact same waiver.

Sorry, that was meant for the response below

Client #2 entered the United States illegally in 2010.

@Wanderlust
Seems to be a very quiet time, have not seen anything since last week?

Lk replied 3 months ago   #2028

Pretty quiet this wk. Anyone received an approval as of recent? Still waiting for app sent in Dec 2023.

Wanderlust replied 3 months ago   #2027

@NightmanGuru Thank you- I know it's extremely frustrating- Good luck to you

The CHI replied 3 months ago   #2026

@The CHI it’s becoming very overwhelming. My loved on is in the army and i missed their graduation. I feel like they are not handling it case by case

NightmanGuru replied 3 months ago   #2025

I’m waiting since April 2023 they keep bringing up driving while suspended wich recently got dropped …. So I’m guessing they want to me just travel because when I submitted my waiver the cop told me my record is old and he would have let me in no problem but indeed I do have a criminal record that bars me from entry so sounds like there a bunch of 🤡 @The CHI

Jondjons replied 3 months ago   #2024

@J Rogers My response to request for more information was sent in on July 3rd, 2024; Cannot believe I am still waiting for completion. Original submission was October 19th, 2023.

The CHI replied 3 months ago   #2023

Re-application. But they forgot that he needs the O visa designation.

So we emailed them and a week later they sent another copy, showing he has an "O" visa.

That's why is says completed twice.

3 year waiver

His first application. He actually started waivers before but never handed them in. No idea WHY a 3 year. He does have a pardon.

5 year waiver -Re-application. Client also has an "O" visa and although we mentioned it on the application on page 4, they did not include it this time. So the client is contacting them to get this added.
