Hardship: Pending: Form I-612: Received: September 30, 2021. No government funding

I’m hoping our long wait will have a positive outcome from DoS.

November 17, 2021 USCIS requested advisory opinion from DOS. DOS recived my DS-3035 application on March 18, 2021. However, there is no update about the delivery status of I-612/I-613 since then. Multiple inquiries to USCIS and DOS. USCIS says that they are waiting on DOS to provide an opinion. On the other hand, DOS says that they can not provide a recommendation until all forms are delivered. I am stuck in this situation. Is there anyone going through the same situation?

USCIS forward to DoS on May 24th and it doesn’t show up as received either and my lawyer insists that’s normal. Any thoughts?

[DrIdaddoq 22]

I think there is major delays in hardship processing at the DoS.

In my case, they took them 5 months to update as received. 

Sent to USCIS: 4/7/21. Forwarded to DOS: 9/2/21.  DOS "received" date: 2/9/22.  Status: pending.

Omg! So when they updated it was not even the real time but months later.

My i-612/I-613 reached DOS in March 2022. DOS updated on portal in August 2022. Not sure clock starts in March or August, but it's disappointing speed no doubt.

I think the clock starts in August. It's from the date they update i-612/I-613 in their system.It's so frustrating

They need to try to accelerate the process. Otherwise, 9-12 months will become 12-24 months, then the months will keep increasing.

[SMARCA4 15]

Just heard about a hardship case that got approved on 9/15.

DOS received I-612/613 on 6/21/21.

 

Hopefully we start seeing more of that!
