I have hired a vaccination exemption attorney and have prepared for my religious exemption. I was just about to start a new post in here when I noticed this thread. There does not seem to be much information on the entire Internet about peoples' experiences with the waiver. One British man in here said it took him 6 months after interview to get approved as his waiver was sent to CDC Center for Disease Control in Washington, DC. He said he didn't mind the delay as he wasn't in a hurry to get into the US as he was working.
My lawyer is Alan Phillips http://www.vaccinerights.com/ and I purchased his e-book and then hired him to assist me with the I-601 form and affidavit and friends' affidavits and so on. I believe at the interview process I will be denied a visa as the form is sent away for approval. I was hoping to be approved same day but if not I hope the delay is not too long. I also read one in a hundred visa applicants apply for religious exemption, and two in a hundred for philosophical reasons. Philosophical can be more difficult from what I understand to get approved. And the religious exemption has to be sincere. However, the definition of religious is broad as you will see at sites help with the process. There is also an exemption for those allergic to vaccines. Also there are many good sites regarding 'educate before you vaccinate.'

What was the end result? Did you get approved? Any tips?
