Has anyone had any approved waivers in the last week. There have been no updates since before the long weekend :(

Thanks @beu

As soon as I get mine I’ll update here as well.

@jrogers

Have you seen any updates in the last week(ish)? It’s been really quiet and really unsure where they are at this week.

Thanks.

@j rogers

Thanks I appreciate it @Beu

Hi, I have no idea what date is being approved now. I applied may 5th and I haven’t got any reply yet. Once I get it, I will update here. The last time updated was on July 5 and it took about 74 days. I’m not sure that’s still the same time frame. It has been increasing over the past few weeks. I’m anxiously waiting as well for anyone with a May submission to ARO. All the best @RG

I submitted mine on May 16th. If anyone got there's accepted and applied in May let us know!

I’m eagerly waiting as well. Any new updates for this week?

Hi everyone!

If there are any other updates you can provide that would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Thanks so much. I get it. @J Rogers

@Beulah

A September Letter is a letter stating you do not NEED a waiver, and can travel freely. You show it when you travel, but it never needs to be renewed. Its the best case scenario.

-September Letter
-5 year waiver
-(anything less than 5 years)
-Rejection letter.

I see 80% 5 year waivers, 20% something else, mainly 1 year waivers. In the past 3 years, not a single client has gotten 2 consecutive 1's, so generally if you get a 1, if you re-apply you get bumped up to a 5 year waiver.

@pet
Really appreciate the update thanks!

74 days for 5 year

What is September letter. @J Rogers

@Beulah

So whenever we suspect the US has made a mistake, we merely state the facts and let them "realize" this isn't a case that requires a waiver. The Ban isn't really relevant.

You are a good candidate for a September Letter if it was a mistake. Expect it might take longer if they do consider this option, maybe up to 90 days.

Hello everyone. Thank you for your updates. It’s really helpful. My case is a little different. I was refused entry to the US 15 years ago as a student. The officer checked the wrong doc. It was an error from them. I have gone into the US after then only to be turned back again this March 2022 that I require a waiver. My lawyer suggested to apply for a waiver and also request the bann to be rescinded since there’s enough proof it was an error. Have no criminal issues nor ever overstayed in my travels. I applied for my waiver in May 5 with an additional request to reverse the bann. Do you think my processing time will be longer? Has anyone heard or had this type of case? Any advice? Please advice @J Rogers

I’m as anxious as you are. Would love to know what dates they are working on now. At least an idea or update@RG

Any new updates for this week? I get yesterday was 4th of July but something should have came through today (July 5th)? Thanks

Wow. Will keep our fingers crossed. @J Rogers

Remember no waivers were done yesterday because its July 4rth weekend. Probably a lot of the waivers almost done may take an extra couple of days because of Monday being a holiday.

Its not an exact science. If the person working on your waiver took this whole week off (Its July) then the file sits on the desk until they get back. Its paperwork, and its one at a time, and people do not work hard before or after a long weekend generally.

Thanks. I wonder what timelines they are working with now. I’m hoping it 65 days because today is my 62nd day. Please if anyone submitted in may and already got a response. Kindly update. Thanks @candra1
