I-601- complications with hardships... have you been approved?

[Unshakable Faith 493]

Has anyone had an i-601 waiver approved without strong arguments/reasons for hardships if their fiance cannot come to the states?

I have many arguments of why it would be a hardship for me to move, but besides the normal "not wanting to be apart" (considering I've lived 27 years here without him), I have no reasons for why I couldn't get along without him here.

Has anyone been approved without these arguments?

Thanks for any info or any advice!

It's very hard for K1's to prove hardship since you aren't married and get waiver approved. Most lawyers even advise get married.

Can I ask are you sure you need a waiver? How do you know you need a waiver?

That's just not going to cut it for a waiver

I am going to disagree as it is extremely rare for a well prepared waiver not to be approved assumig the reason i is required is not exceptionally egregarious.

Do you have a Lawyer?

I disagree as well... I-601 waivers are actually overwhelmingly approved (79.6%).

No, I am going to do this independently. I am aware of the risks but I have no financial means to hire a lawyer for thousands of dollars. I am taking my time, I've researched and I'm continuing to research and I am trying to be as prepared as possible. I've also spoken with people that have gone about this and successfully obtained an approval without a lawyer. I know it's not suggested but it's the only option I have!

Yes, I've visited that site and they seem to be more familiar with the waivers more so than VJ.

Hoping this process will move along smoothly!

And unless the Lord and His infinite mercy intervene, we will need a waiver.

What issues do you have?

With all due respect and although it's difficult to understand tone of voice through a message-please know I am not being rude when I say this.

I don't want the generalized opinion of the majority of VJ that have gained their knowledge from reading what others post.

I was asking if anyone has been approved without the specific hardships or if anyone has any specific information regarding the topic.

Unless you've gotten a waiver denied without them or been approved without them, or are VERY familiar with the ins-and-outs of a case with either of these, I'm just not up for the generic answer.

If its a simple overstay I would not be worried.

I messaged you

As mentioned above, I think as long as your waiver is well-prepared, you should be good.

You quoted a high approval rate for the waivers, but ask yourself from what countries? Then you would know whether this is gonna be successful

That is the overall statistics from USCIS...

Why is that relevant?

Well on this board we are allowed to voice our opinions regardless.
