Need advice BADLY

[moniqueinlove 0]

Hi,

I need advice badly, Im just starting this and hope it posts correctly. My boyfriend got deported Sept 30th, as we were getting off a cruise ship, I am now filing for a fiance visa to get him back here to the U.S. I also have to file the I-212 form for him to apply to enter the U.S. again. Should I send both forms at the same time? Do I follow the "rules" and file the I-212 at place of deportation and the I-129 at the VT (my areas) USCIS.

How long is this going to take with both issues going on at the same time?? Any and all advice much appreciated.

Depending on reason for being deported, or denied entry you may or MAY-NOT need to file a waiver. You can only file a waiver upon a consulate officer's request, not before.

What was the reason for being denied entry?

He was denied entry for "living and working here illegally." Although he had his return ticket for the following week to Italy. He was on a B1-B2 visa...and would return every 6 months for a couple of weeks. Did this for two years. They didnt like his pattern of travel. It was more based on opinion than fact.

Anyway, Im getting all the doc's prepared at this time. But I am quite sure both I129 and I212 need to be filed...to seperate places...and I hope at the same time?

I spoke to a lawyer and he wasn't sure either. I cant be the first person to have had their fiance deported. Im so needing advice and help through this difficult time.

Thanks so much,

Monique

I haven't been there, so I have no advice.

I just wanted to wish you luck in sorting it all out.

Yes for this reason you probably will have to file a waiver to overcome the ban that will be in place, but again have it prepared, and file it when the Counselor Officer requests it.

The I-212 ...is considered a waiver? YES?
