  1. Thanks everyone! My DS expires in 3 months. Not sure if that's how they triage. Again, I think it's a blackbox and no one knows how they make the decisions. If you read the publications about this from Hake et al., they have been contemplating about the process since 1993, and no one figured it out yet.
  2. Guys... my wait has just ended! 😭 I checked yesterday (3/16/23) was pending, but just changed this morning. Stay hopeful!
  3. I can't access my case status... anybody facing such a problem?
  4. This is bizarre. Does the second Hardship case contain I-612? They may have filed two DS-3035's by mistake and just used one. Overall, bizarre. Unless it's a clerical error.
  5. Me too. I hate PENDING. It’s my life now. I have few more months for my J1 to end. Been waiting for 17+ months now at DoS alone. Every single day. Every. Single. Day. I keep checking with stupid hope that the status changed. It’s almost mental.
  6. No one knows if the timer "resets". Bottom line no one truly knows what happens behind the DoS closed doors.
  7. I have. And it took them a while, but eventually updated my case with "Others" received. I sent it by email to their email
  8. Omg. Not my case, but this is very discouraging. My case pending since Sep 2021.
  9. I'm losing my mind refreshing EVERY SINGLE WORK DAY for 17 months....
  10. encouraging... but I'm getting so brutally anxious. Still pending since Sep 2021.
  11. I guess different interpretations. Maybe no one really knows what happens there. My case wasn’t kicked back to the USCIS. I’m pretty sure DoS has authority to refuse the waiver based on the degree of hardship and not just J1. You can see some unfavorable outcomes there when the sponsor says something sometimes. It doesn’t go against J1 but it doesn’t bode well to applicant. No he just said to wait. Him and another lawyer think it’s been taking 17-24 months nowadays at DoS so just waiting is the best course of action, unfortunately. I’ve been waiting since September 2021 at the DoS (~17 months now).
  12. Schmitt is my lawyer. He's good. Also, he EMAILED my new DS form and some new information that I needed the DoS to know. N
  13. No. But if your state waiver gets approved your hardship waiver at the DoS will be cancelled. If you get the hardship before (from DoS) then you can actively cancel the state one.
