haití why do you have to go back? i had my interview in the US

@in the Jesus name amen for the interview…. Did you overstay your visa??? Do you mind telling me more about your experience?

dont be nervous, i know a lot of people that had an interview and came back .. is part of the process. Do you mine asking you how long did it take ?

That's right, i601A is to waive illegal presence when traveling for interview. El Salvador.

@ i crossed the border with refugee status

if your spouse is a us citizen there is a waiver to prevent you from going back to your country ask your lawyer about it.

@in the Jesus name amen my application was done through parents not spouses.

@MR R How long did what take? the waiver? if so Im still waiting on approval.

@William u Have you done it? How was it?

@in the Jesus name amen @lovely roses The waiver doesn't eliminate you from going to back to your country, the waiver prevents the 10 year ban from kicking in. @in the Jesus name amen You need to inform before giving bad advice. @lovely roses FYI Biden administration announced last week a new policy in which spouses would no longer need i-601A waiver and would be able to adjust from the US. I'm not sure if it covers parents petition, You might want to do more research. The policy will go into effect later this summer.

Yes, I applied for the waiver and was approved but changed routes later when a new door opened

@William bs I've been through that

@William u I read it and don’t think it applies to my case….. My mom who petitioned for me was a greencard holder and past away during the process.

@lovely roses I am truly sorry about your loss! I hope everything works out for you at the end.

@in the Jesus name amen You have not been through because as a refugee don't don't back to your country for interviews. Refugees are an exception.

how long hove you been waiting?

@MR R We just sent my waiver in & was told by my lawyer that I will have to go back to my country for the interview.

@William u thank you!!!🙏🏾

@William u do you know what would be the process to transfer an approval I60A to the new parole in place.. my brother just got approved today but we are scare from him to go back to our home country.

@Sai mai There is no need to transfer i-601A as it will be a new process and new fees all over again. The only application which will be valid will be your i-130. If your brother has tattoos, if he drinks or was a drinker, DUI , smokes marijuana now or in the past, certain criminal record then I would highly recommend doing PIP. If he has nothing of what I mention doing CP should be fine. Do know, the fees for i-485 went up this year, the fee for PIP(i-131) is unknown at the moment. If you take PIP route, make sure to put a hold on your CP and continue to maintain communication with NVC/embassy once a year as a backup in case PIP does not work. Also, take into account that your i-601A was approved which was the longest waiting period for his immigration journey, he is almost done. Doing PIP might take a long time as the parole would have to approved first before submitting i-485.

@William u thank you !!!
