Feb 14,2018- Administrative Processing

April 30,2018 - Got a call from US Embassy Manila for 2nd Interview

Hmm...?

Sounds like the OP is inadmissible due to a material misrepresentation.

But I thought you have an approved waiver. Why would they ask you for another one?

This means she could've applied for a 601A waiver for he overstay here in the US, even if it was approved when she went home to do her interview the consulate still found her guilty of misrepresentation on her time of arrival to the US prior her overstay -meaning she needs another 601 waiver to cover that as well. Then they can process her visa after.
