@Femi When was your denial at the border for the trace of weed?

1-year waiver. First time applying. I had a grinder with trace amounts of weed in my car when crossing the border. No criminal record.
They only approved visitor entry, I am trying to update that to include TN, L1 etc. @J Rogers, Is this usually quick and straightforward?
Also, when do you recommend I re-apply? Immediately?

@Zookz Hello, please tell me when you received the last message by e-mail, and your approval for waiver, was it the same text or was it written differently. ** Dear e-SAFE User:

@Justblaze check this thread. " Handing in Waivers -Quarantine and timelines - Post here"

There has been no updates for two weeks now? Any issues with waivers showing completed. Application was submitted to ARO since Feb 2024, no update yet!

How long should you wait before filing first waiver if denied entry on 212 misrepresentation while applying for TN visa. I do not have any criminal record and have a long history of visiting US with no long term stays.

@Free2Travel

Could you please mention where approx you are located in Canada

I submitted via Esafe, & Biometrics in Fort Erie Ontario. This would be my 5th waiver renewal. So not new to this

Created Feb 6 2024
Submitted Feb 8 2024
Still waiting.

Seems crazy to me how out of order this process has been. So just wondering if location and therefore volume of applications plays into this somehow? There's no way April and May should be ahead of early Feb. Seeing this I'm literally checking daily

Just received my 5 year waiver today, my 3rd time getting it, a little over 4 months.

Created 3/21
Submitted to ARO 4/16
Approved 8/22

Best of luck to others waiting

Hi all,

For those who've been waiting for some progress...

Yes that is correct submitted to ARO but this is for I-192.

@Melissa Where did you see the term: "PENDING FURTHER REVIEW"?

Are you talking about "Submitted to ARO"?

Has anyone been approved after their status changed to "pending further review"?

We submitted Oct 30
Paid, and Application was on file Nov 9th
Pending further review August 2nd

Just a bit nervous because its been 9 months now and many people have been approved around the 6 month mark.

@Thompson S i believe John has said that ARO sends the same generic reply to everyone who inquires. I’ve tried lol. The waiting period is tough but don’t fret. It’s coming.

@Thompson S No.
