A short summary of what happened:
My wife was in the US illegally for almost 8 years. She only entered once, we met, got married and had kids. We applied for an immigrant visa for her but she was denied for a false claim to US citizenship which was actually unfounded and based on an ambiguous statement my wife gave during the Visa Interview. We have been unable to overcome this though, and she has a lifetime bar now. It looks like for now, we have to wait for a waiver to be available for this offence since the Consul will not relook at our case (we have tried for 7 months). Otherwise, maybe she could qualfiy for humanitarian parole to come back to the US.
I would like to know if anyone has experience with the application process for humanitarian parole, which supposedly takes 90-120 days. I am working hard on the application which is I-131 and I-134 and supporting documents, and hope to submit them soon, but I want to make sure we don't make any mistakes this time. We also want to try to expedite it (like have it done in a week for example...), well that is because we are a fast food supercharged nation and I typically do things at rapid speed and do not like when the government processes slow things down.
Any opinions, experiences or resources would be helpful. I have just about worn out the internet search engines looking for information on this odd situation that only has a few hundred approvals per year.
Thanks.
