I have filed an I-601 hardship waiver and am waiting on USCIS to approve it. Will this new rule make it take longer for USCIS to decide my application?
 
USCIS has said that the new I-601A filings will not delay the adjudication of currently pending I-601 waiver applications. There has been no work yet on whether the I-601A program will cause it to take longer for USCIS to decide future I-601 hardship waiver applications under the regular process.
