    If you are applying on the 3 year rule, did you have the ROC interview together? If so, did they update the ROC case before the interview to show it had been scheduled?

    How did the interview go? Did you gave a choice to be oath on same day vs later day or you requested it?

    Is anyone here from Pakistan who applied to Milwaukee field office? I see some people who applied online have already got their interviews scheduled. 

     

    I applied N400 online March 16. Submitted an additional document (new job) in the month of April. Notice and Biometric came right after I applied on 3/16. Anyone else have a true picture of timing at Milwaukee office?

    Yeah, I did. I know this is a public site but I wish I could hear more about your "strong" case to compare it to mine. And did you say you applied for asylum too? cuz my lawyer said i couldn't do  both.

    If you have a valid status then you are fine, i had a different issue . You can definitely do both . But again may be your case is different

    The whole process takes over a year, almost two years. 

     

    I think USCIS takes at least 8 months to finish this first step you are waiting for.

     

    Are you sure you had to go the hardship waiver route?

    yes this was the only way to apply for, I have an asylum pending, so lawyer suggested there is no reason to apply for persecution. My scholarhsip had $40, 000 govt funding. There is no other way around except hardship waiver for my marriage

    Hi, Has anyone applied for Hardship Waiver in the last year and still waiting?

     

    I applied in August 14 , 2017 with DOS and Aug 22, 2017 with USCIS. No changes has been made after i received the notice. Is anyone else waiting? ? ? I tried to make an E-enquiry but it cancelled and said that my case in under NORMAL TIMELINES. 

     

    Is any one waited the same time ?

     

    Thanks

    Their adline is:  The Ranchod Law Group, immigration legal assistance for hardship waivers ... Immigration attorneys in California with offices in Sacramento and Santa Clara ..

     

    The website has few dates listed on it, formation, history, the team is small as well so not a "Practice specialist" as many points are for a generalist.  

     

    Compare to others:

    http://www.jeffries-law.com/stephen-d-jeffries.html

    http://www.jvisawaiver.com/Practice-Areas/Persecution-Waiver.shtml

     

    Lawyers can be good and bad and you need to tell them your budget.

     

     

     

    I am highly unsure as to I invest the attorney fee and everything or  should I go back , coz my financial background is very low. I dont know what other way is to handle this situation, ONE MORE QUESTION. HOW MANY WEEKS NORMALLY OR PRIOTIY IT TAKES TO HEAR BACK FROM THE DOS ON THE WAIVER DECISION ???

    That is absolutely not true. You are not conferred any immigration status while you wait for the waiver. You need to consult an attorney who specializes in J-1 waivers. 

     

    The bad scenario you are risking is this - if the waiver is denied, you can't file for AOS, which means the only option would be going back and fulfilling the rule. Once you're out of the US, you will be slapped with a ban for overstay, which will complicate your process even more because then you can't return to US for 2 years, and will need to start to apply for another waiver (which is not guaranteed). 

     

    Please, please get a second opinion. I will reiterate - once the date in your I-94 expires, you will be out of status and the fact that you are waiting for a waiver does not extend that status.

     

    i called a really good lawyer, its ranchod law group. the main attorney director of the firm contacted me after booking consultation. he said it will be no issue coz i am married to a USC.

    I am sorry, do you know what you are talking about?

    I've been on J-1, so am speaking from experience. He has an unexpired J-1 so overstay or unauthorized work do not even fit into your assumption.

     

    @Muhammad369

    It will not be easy, as you are applying for a waiver without completing even part of the 2YHRR. Seriously, consult an immigration attorney who specializes in waivers. You will need a lot of documentation and proof that your departure will be detrimental to the USC. That will require medical records and many others. Like I said earlier, the bar here is higher than the bar for asylum based on my conversations with different immigration lawyers. Keep in mind that separation from USC spouse for 2 years is not enough of a reason for hardship.

     

    Also, waiver processing takes anywhere from 6 months to 2 years - during processing you will not be in status if your current status expires, and will likely have to go back. In that case, it would be easier to just wait it out and then file for a K-1 from abroad once 2 years go by.

     

    Thank Kurosawa. I contacted an attorney and he said if I have applied for a waiver and waiting for an answer, I can stay meanwhile. I am not sure how he is saying that but yes he said to me that this is going to be a case. I am stuck in a big indecisiveness.

    Have your USC spouse file the I-130 for AOS and once you receive the NOA from them receiving the petition you are granted a legal status to remain in the US......

    Do you have a 2 year home stay rule for the J-1 you are on? That you may need to get a waiver for but that is really all.

    I have a 2 year rule on my J1. Thats it
