i612 Posted May 7, 2015 Report Posted May 7, 2015 USCIS received my favorable letter on Mar/5/2015. Since that time, there is no update at all. Is there any one who is in same situation with me? Why USCIS process is so slow?
NoobEb1A Posted May 8, 2015 Report Posted May 8, 2015 I monitored that particular receipt date for about 60 days. About 30 % were approved 30 days after the receipt date notice and about 80 - 90 % had been approved by 60 days from that notice date. So all of them had not been approved in 60 days. I guess it depends on who is handling the case and how much work load s/he has. Hopefully your wait will be over soon.
KASS_1783 Posted June 16, 2015 Report Posted June 16, 2015 i612, any news to you? Was your case approved?
sarea Posted July 1, 2015 Report Posted July 1, 2015 In my case DOS letter was received on May 14, 2015, and still no approval for I612 from vermont. I have been seeing delays of 4-6 months on some forums. Any updates on this would be appreciated. i612 did you get your case approved?
KASS_1783 Posted July 3, 2015 Report Posted July 3, 2015 sarea, In my case it has been 10 weeks and so far nothing!!!!
MediumRare Posted July 3, 2015 Report Posted July 3, 2015 Waiting since April 16th.. Anybody had any luck finding out from Vermont by email or by calling their call center ?
mikenovva Posted April 27, 2017 Report Posted April 27, 2017 ATTENTION! UPDATE ON MY WAIVER APPLICATION! My incompetent Lawyer had made a mistake!!! That's why my case has been taking so long!! Mine was based on exceptional hardship. Form DS-3035 was supposed to be filed with the DoS (partially online and the rest through mail) <<< This had to be the first step of the waiver!! Then (second step), you file I-612 with USCIS! My timeline: -6/12/2016: I-612 was received by USCIS -12/13/2016: USCIS requested another Non-USCIS Advisory opinion (I assume with DoS). -My have has been pending ever since (4 months)! It shouldn't take so long with DoS! Usually takes them a few weeks! -Today, I e-filed DS-3035 online, printed and sent out with supporting documents as it was supposed to be done by my lawyer in the first place!!!FOR THOSE WHO HAVE THEIR CASE WITH DOS FOR TOO LONG, MAKE SURE THAT YOU'VE FILED THAT FORM WITH THEM UNLIKE ME!!! THE FOLLOWING LINKS ARE VERY USEFUL! I WISH I HAD FILED EVERYTHING BY MYSELF IN THE FIRST PLACE! I WOULD DO A WAY BETTER JOB!! https://travel.state.gov/content/visas/en/study-exchange/student/residency-waiver/ds-3035-instructions.html#step2 AND; http://www.nolo.com/legal-encyclopedia/j-1-visa-holder-get-exceptional-hardship-waiver-two-year-home-residency-requirement.html
