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.

I have another client with a Sexual assault. He was given 3 - 1 year waivers.
Today on his re-application, they suddenly started asking for FURTHER documentation INCLUDING privacy act fingerprints and court documents, including police reports and transcripts.
This is just a reminder, when you do your waiver, they DO look at each waiver as a "new" waiver, even if it has been a while. Don't do a half assed job. In the case of this client, I guess he got tired of paying me, (I give a discount for re-applications) and he decided to just take all the "old" stuff and do it himself. He changed NOTHING, which I NEVER do. I change it EVERY time.
Anyways, now he is begging me to help him, and I will, but had he just let me do it again, we probably (we can't know for sure) wouldn't now be stuck.
Done myself, 4 Waiver so happy can go south for winter!

I thought I would post our timeline, this forum gave me a pretty good idea of when to expect my waiver. Mine was a re-application, second waiver. First one was in 2019 for 5 years. (Took only 40 days first time). Re-applied again via E-safe on May 20, went to the border June 5. Got 2nd 5 year waiver Sep 22. Good luck to everyone, things seem to be speeding up again.
@J Rogers As well why some people get a completion must faster after submitting their request for more information response. I submitted my response in July and still waiting whereas this one took less than a week after the response was submitted. I don't get it

@J Rogers hey I’ve noticed a substantial slow down over the last 2 weeks. Am I accurate In thinking that ? Especially since you mentioned that hundreds of people applied for waivers with you ahead of the April 1 price increase ?
