Expedite Request
Hi everyone. I’m looking for some guidance from anyone who has successfully submitted an expedite request to USCIS for urgent humanitarian reasons, specifically for a pending waiver.
My case has already been pending for approximately 53 months since may 2022. Unfortunately, my family in Colombia has just been severely affected by the recent earthquake. My parents lost their home, other members of my family have also been affected, and one of my sisters is currently missing.
I am extremely worried and desperate to be with my family during this emergency. I would like to request expedited processing of my pending waiver based on urgent humanitarian circumstances.
Has anyone here gone through a similar situation involving a natural disaster or serious family emergency?
If so, could you please share how you submitted your expedite request, what evidence you provided, and whether you submitted it yourself, through an attorney, through USCIS, or with congressional assistance?
I would especially appreciate hearing from anyone who has successfully expedited a waiver or another USCIS case based on humanitarian reasons.
Thank you so much. Any guidance or personal experience would mean a lot to me right now.

I’m so sorry to hear that about your family, I’ll keep my prayers up to find your sister and hope you can go. I’m Colombian too and I have travel 2 times, last time in march due to an unfortunate event with a family member but I was able to come back safe and with no problems to USA, I don’t know if that helps but that was my experience

I’m sorry to hear about your family. I pray they all are safe and well 🙏🏾

I did expedited my vawa case based on humanitarian reason, and it was approved and I have an approved VAWA now. You have really good reason. Write a detailed letter explaining the whole situation, and if you can get additional letters from your family and friends to support your claim, that’s even better. Make sure those letters are notarized (very important) because it’s makes it a legal document. Also, attach proofs to support your claim like photos, documents, anything to support your claim that you need to go be with your family. Best of luck!!!
