What can I do?

[mahmed01]

Hello all:
I guess I'm stuck, but don't really know where I stand! It's been 8 month I submitted our waiver, supposedly to be adjudicated in New Delhi (at least that's What I was told at time of submission on I-601 & I-212 @ the consulate). The people @ New Delhi website tells not to bother them 4 at least 6 months from receipt of the Forms....OK! So I have been tryng to call them during the last week @ the number the consulate gentleman gave me, but no one picks up that #!
Now I get to hear that waivers (601 & 212) submitted together get adjudicated in Rome, Italy, not New Delhi. OK! I check their updates available thru website every 15 days, and our case is not there yet. And most interestingly, their telephone number listed for contacting does not have enough digits....although fax number has all the degits.
What do I do now? U know how it feels to look towards an empty horizon or walking thru a dark tunnel...Many of u here say that "they" don't give any info over the fone. What if I send a fax? U think I would get an answer by a return fax? Did any of u have done this?
Your feedback is honestly appreciated:thumbup:

You are not alone in this, I submited mine in Cairo Feb 13th, went to Athnens Mar 29th (I was going crazy to find out where is my waiver), stayed in Athens until May 17th and for some reason went to Rome on May 29th, send them an email Jun xxth - sorry forgot the day - they said they do not have it....I went crazy...few dayh later they sent me an email saying they have it now....

Been waitig ever since...

How about getting your congressman or senator's office involved? You are outside the "normal processing time", so that would be a good next step if you don't get any response from trying to contact them yourself.

I'm getting ready to wright our waiver, it will be sent through the embassy in Tunisia to Rome. Is there a way to expedite this process using my states senator how do I get them involved and does it really save time?

How can you get a congressman or senator involved? I am in the prosses of waiver too, in the very begining thoug but additional info will be good!

Hi hi....

some thoughts here on the subject...
Basically from what I understand, your congressman/senator will probably only want to be involved/write a letter if either:
-You case has fallen outside of regular administration waiver processing times and you can show that your hardship is being increased as a result
or
-Your case has a medical/personal safety reason for expedition/speeding up the case. This means the USC is either very ill and must get medical (life saving) attention immediately, or, there is an infant USC involved who needs a parent caring for them OR, there is a war or a threat that exists for the USC in the country they will be forced to reside in....

You may have reasons that would require involving your congressman/senator....which if I go by the above I hope not.
