Handing in Waivers -Quarantine and timelines - Post here

J Rogersposted 2 years ago

Post real application stories here. Not "A guy told me" or "a few of my clients" but specific client experiences so others can see accurately what is happening.

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

[ J Rogers appended this reply on April 28, 2022 @ 1:52 pm ]

Client #2 entered the United States illegally in 2010.

[ J Rogers appended this reply on January 26, 2024 @ 11:29 am ]

Sorry June 14th, not 16th.

Replies (recent first):

5 year waiver.

Reapplication for misrepresentation. 2005

The client is thrilled so said I can share a bit about her story.


At my families urging, I pretended my nephew and niece were actually my children. I knew what I was doing was wrong, but foolishly thought I was doing a “good thing” for these kids, aged 11 and 12 at the time.

Note, this client went to the border Feb 7 but I do have an earlier client who was February 8. That seems to be the most recent date.

This client is a re-application.


I entered the United States in 1994 approx from Pakistan and tried to gain political asylum. I used a fake visa that I bought in Pakistan to gain entry. It was not granted and in 1995 I went to Canada and asylum was granted

Again, no record. I do a LOT of these applications, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, India, and many other countries (Russia, Albania, Somalia)

5 year waiver

Weird application. We supplied court docs, 1 conviction only which was pardoned. They asked for MORE documents. She tried to get more, I resubmitted the same ones I sent the in the first place, she got a 5 year waiver.

I fully expected a rejection letter saying we didn't respond within 87 days.

Thank you

1 year waiver

Overstayed, and working without proper authorization in the United States from 2007-2008. First waiver. Basically he worked on cruise ships, had visa to do that. Then he got the visa and went and got another job instead. Very common.

@Waitingforwaiver Why the hostility? And I also post waiver that are also rejected. It isn't to "brag", its to give up to date information....do you not find it useful?

And "live" on this forum? I actually ALWAYS wait to give people a chance to answer first, and only chime in when no one answers or the answer needs more information. I also GAIN information here.

Not sure why you would say that, perhaps you can ignore my posts in the future?

J Rogers replied 9 months ago   #1088

@David H if he did, it would be posted. He loves to brag and literally live on this forum

Waitingforwaiver replied 9 months ago   #1087

@J Rogers did you received accepted waiver for application that was submitted beginning of February 2023 ? Or just the end of January as today ? I made mine February 2th and really anxious leaving July 1rst for a family trip !
Thanks a lot !
David H

David H replied 9 months ago   #1086

@BRECKER

They actually ONLY give the Waiver to attractive people. (shhh..little known secret)

I have never uploaded a picture for a single client. You can skip it.

J Rogers replied 9 months ago   #1085

@johnrogers or anyone;

I submitted my esafe application and forgot to upload a picture.

Is it necessary? I know it is recommended. I am going for my biometrics tomorrow, could they upload it for me?

Thnx

BRECKER replied 9 months ago   #1084

@Linda congrats ! Thanks for the info !

What a weird sequence of Waivers.

- denial
- denial
-5 years
-5 years
-5 years
-2 year waiver
-Denial
-2 year waiver.

I rarely get 2 year waivers, and rarely get denials. But a whole bunch at once. The denials were not a surprise except 1. Sexual Assault but in 1991.

J Rogers replied 9 months ago   #1082

2 year waiver her first waiver. NO convictions, just charges.

2019-Poss of a Weapon – Poss of a Firearm, Poss of a Restricted Weapon. Possession of a Firearm knowing its serial number has been tampered with.--WITHDRAWN
2017- Dangerous Operation of a Motor Vehicle - withdrawn
2015 Prostitution (admitted to Homeland Security not convicted for)
2015 Possession of a Schedule II Substance for Trafficking Possession of a Schedule I Substance-withdrawn
