Hello again. I last posted in June 2016 after going to China and being denied IV on I-601a at the interview. My wife remains in China while I am in US. Good news is 3 weeks ago we got I-601 approved. My lawyer says a second interview is not required but she has been wrong before. such as the 601a denial. We went to GUZ May5, 2016 for the original interview. approval of new 601 was 6/29/2017. that is more than one year. From what I read, on FB and Candle, a new interview is needed. Is that true? And #2 question: can I set up the date or must I wait for US Consulate to assign date? Furthermore I expect if an Interview is required then I also need: Medical, Police report, Biometrics, Photos. Affidavit of Support and also what? all supporting documents from first interview? My wife is nervous, ( like an alligator in a belt factory) to face another interview, after the dreaded denial last year. I say, our case has been 'adjudicated' approved and inadmissibility Waived, there is nothing to worry about. Background info: there was unlawful presence and entry. the I-601a apparently covered "unlawful presence" but not entry. it was a single entry by 'wave through' in 2003. It should have been included. That is in the past for us, however others may be helped to know it. the I-601A, must clearly address everything. My previous story, post, is: " Visa denied at interview with 601a" I can tell others that I-601 approvals now take 1 year, it used to be 4-6 months, but they slowed way down. also "expedited processing" is a no go. they get so many requests that they do not even bother to say No. just assume you did not get it. it appears that only very extreme medical issues will get it. in Sum my questions are interview required? can I set-up interview? medical? will I need whole file & docs, again? Is adjudication on I-601 final or are we at risk? Any idea if I-601 follows same typical timeline to complete? thank you so much. This is a wonderful site and service, it is a blessing to us lost souls. God bless Carl. Tom

We had a disaster in Guangzhou. our visa was denied by Consular Officer. My wife was in the US for 13 yrs, we are married 6. with attorney help we filed 601a and I did previous i130, 864 and DS 260. all approved. Lawyer said no problem, we always get visa, only a couple of relationship questions. we were ambushed by CO, not a nice guy. he was aggressive in questions, zeroing in on entry to US issues. My wife was nervous and intimidated. Slammed -denied without any written or verbal explanation. no name of CO, no supervisor review. She is now stranded in China, me back in US alone. I'm dying w/o her. Warning DO NOT leave US for consular interview. be 110% certain. get second legal opinions. this is clearly my lawyers fault. the interview prep mentioned none of these possibilities. I would give up the green card we don't have to get her back. The GC is not necessary to be comfortable in US, especially if older. there are many incompetent lawyers, many turn over work to ignorant paralegals. I hope and expect to get 601 prepared & approved, but I got to figure out exactly where the wheels came off this time. I read the processing times run 9 months. consider your risks. they will deny very easily, w/o compassion or legal representation. tom
