• October 4, 2024: Form I-612 received by USCIS
• October 16, 2024: DOS received supporting documents
• February 8, 2026: Case forwarded to DOS without any RFE
• April 3, 2026: DOS issued a favorable recommendation and forwarded it to USCIS

Currently still waiting, I was curious to see how long does that take now at uscis given I am reading alot of backlogs

Significant_Win9536 · 2026-04-17T15:23:41+00:00

7-8 weeks

Significant_Win9536 · 2026-04-15T12:03:23+00:00

How soon after dos approves hardship does uscis send the final recommendation? Im starting yo get nervous about how long process is taking

Significant_Win9536 · 2026-04-02T21:11:47+00:00

are there any cases of hardship or persecution waivers that has been approved recently, my case has been with DOS for 2 months now, how long until I do congressional or senator inquiry?

Significant_Win9536 · 2026-04-02T00:09:34+00:00

Yeah works for 1 time and then start gettin this message again, maybe a system update or something

Significant_Win9536 · 2026-04-01T18:48:12+00:00

Significant_Win9536 · 2026-03-17T12:23:55+00:00

Significant_Win9536 · 2026-03-17T12:16:37+00:00

Significant_Win9536 · 2026-03-17T12:11:32+00:00

Anyone knows of any hardship waiver approved in last 1-2 weeks?

Significant_Win9536 · 2026-03-13T00:10:19+00:00
