I honestly don’t know how they judge each case. We have no children or medical conditions and got approved. We included our families ties here in the states such as parents and siblings. 

How long did it take you to get approval?

My lawyer is getting ready to file my waiver this month. We went in Friday, 8/11/17  for my father's (he's my qualifying relative) and  because my father needs to have surgery this winter, the lawyer informed me that he will request for expedite processing for the waiver. I didn't know about this option until this last Friday. He said that it is discretionary and up to USCIS to approve the expedite processing.   If it does get approved we are looking at less than a month.  

Did you get approved???

hello how long does it take to receive receipt from I-601A?

It took us about 10-14 days to get a receipt from USCIS. We first got a email and text and then we got the letter 2 days later.
