You may file a legal action against the USCIS to demand that they provide you with an answer to your petition or adjudicate the application if the immigration service is taking longer than normal to make a decision on your case.
Recommendation applications are denied when the reasons given for requesting the waiver do not outweigh the program and foreign policy considerations of the exchange visitor program. For this reason, waiver recommendation applications from exchange visitors who received U.S. government funding are generally denied.
Other reasons why your US waiver might be denied includes: 1) the risk of harm to the society if the applicant is admitted, 2) the seriousness of the applicant's prior violation(s) of immigration or criminal law, if any, and 3) the nature of the applicant's reasons for seeking entry.

The approval success rate of a 601A waiver is generally high, but it can vary based on several factors. ing to recent statistics from the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), the approval rate for 601A waivers has ranged between 70% to 80% in recent years.
If you have any other grounds of inadmissibility—such as criminal history, misrepresentation, or prior removal orders—your waiver may be denied. This is because the waiver doesn't cover these issues, and additional inadmissibility factors must be addressed separately.
