Re: Official I-601A Thread

I think I was also looking at INA section 245, but now I’m not sure if that only applies to a 485 form, or if it also applies to consular process? For reference, I was referring to the ones...

Yup, that's how long these waivers are taking now. Seems the USCIS is moving faster now with the HART center however. Now just patiently waiting for my consular interview, which is inducing a lot of...

So according to the attorneys on the case, suing them in this case could make the applications move faster if you're part of the lawsuit. However, it would largely depend on when they get a court...

I'm confused. How does this work if you've accumulated illegal presence here after turning 18? Or is that an incorrect assumption?

Re: Green Card Petition Thru Parents

Agreed that $14,000 is overkill. Frankly, at that point I'd just rather try to wait out to see what will happen in November, or get married/move if that doesn't work.

And I will take your offer....

Thank you again. If you have any experience with this, how hard is it to prove "extreme hardship" as it relates to your parents and the I-601A waiver?
