Yes, it "waives" the 3 or 10 year bar. The lifetime ban is a another story.

Not sure why you have that attorney if you don't trust him/her. If you have the financial means then get a second opinion if you're really stressing about this.

As Juvi says, that is a "NO".

If she is found inadmissible for any reason, other than unlawful presence, they'll revoke the 601A waiver and have her reply for the waiver and any other missing waivers that may have cause the denial.

For instance, if they believe she'll be a public charge, at that moment they'll let her know her visa has been denied and 601A waiver has been revoked. From her home country, she'll need to reapply for the waiver and find additional sponsors.

If she believes she could be found inadmissible, she should discuss that with a lawyer, or two.

I just have one question, has anyone successfully adjusted their status using this I-601A process?

Just wanted to update y'all on the status of my waiver. It was approved two days ago and they didn't send an RFE. Now I have to do the rest of the paperwork and figure out where the heck I'm supposed to go for my interview since the American embassy closed down in Venezuela.

That's great news! Do you mind posting your timeline below? Also, which center processed your application?

Good luck with the rest of the process!

Maybe they will let you do your interview in the U.S since your embassy is closed? My application was received in November, hopefully, I will hear back soon. USCIS just increase the processing time from 6.5 months to 8.5 months.

I can only wish, but I believe they're sending Venezuelans to Colombia. I'm calling my attorney today to see what she says about it.

It did backtrack a few months, but it didn't affect my timeline. I've been checking on the uscis website and a uscis app, and they're working on a lot of September cases right now, so I'm sure you'll be hearing from them in a couple of months. Good luck!

Do you need a visa to go to Colombia? That may complicate things.

Where do you check to see USCIS is working on September cases?
