There are rare exceptions, but whether you file a waiver, or a waiver AND an I-212 you simply get a waiver in return. That's why I tell clients to wait. Its an extra $930USD for the exact same waiver.

Sorry, that was meant for the response below

@surreygirl, I am in the same situation, I got a 1 year waiver for Misrepresentation, I am looking to apply again, hoping i get a 5 year waiver next time, Do you mind me asking if your infraction was a mojor one, I am trying to see my chances for applying second time and hoping for a 5 year,
Thanks for sharing @oliver1977
@loisgh Congratulations! I know you have been waiting anxiously this entire time! So happy for you!
Happy to share that after 320 days my application has been approved for one year. My case was complex. Over 18 fraud under convictions and theft under 5000. My application was initially denied 8 years ago. And one of the reasons was because I applied too soon.
Hang in there for all who are waiting. I will surely keep you in my thoughts and prayers.

Well it took 405 days, over 13 months, but I finally got approved for my 3rd one-year waiver. I submitted at the border on December 8th 2023. It's hard to believe. I was starting to lose hope that it was going to happen. I am very happy that I will have this upcoming year to travel and visit friends. But honestly a little disheartened that I lost a whole year and had to cancel many plans, and still only got another one year pass. But I will take it. This was an extremely frustrating experience ( my first two waivers took 4 and 5 months) and I hope that these timelines shrink. To those still waiting hang in there.
I212 only
