Being refused entry does not get you a Ban.

What was the 5 year Ban for?

If you have a Ban you will need to file a waiver, at or after the interview.

So I take it you are certain you have a ban.

Yes it will delay the process, Phillipines is particularly hot due to the fraud issues.

Your Husband will need to show extreme hardship as to why you should have the ban waived.

www.immigrate2us.net is good on waivers.

A lot longer than they suggest, all I can say that I have seen people who have waited a year.

If you have a ban and would otherwise be eligible to receive a visa then they will allow you to file a waiver.

I looked up the code they put in your passport. This is an explanation of that: http://www.americanlaw.com/exclude8.html

It seems to indicate that given you were traveling on a tourist (B2?) visa that either the visa was not valid or your passport was good for less than 6 months. Not sure why they would cancel the visa.

If the embassy decides to view this as some sort of misrepresentation, then they could require a waiver.

You should find out more as to why they refused your entry and canceled your visa. That will tell you if this is a problem or not.

As to getting a waiver approved out of Philipines, I have heard it is very, very, very difficult. My attorney who specializes in waivers is not even accepting clients from there (unless it's an appeal) because she feels it is a waste of time and money to pursue a waiver from Philipines. (Just her input of course, but based on her personal experience and other attorneys' she knows experiences.)

hi blueblue,

this is actually what they put on my passport...A 96 395 136 212(a)(7)(A)(i)(I)...what are the first letter and numbers means..its seems that you know where to find all the meaning of this.i cant find them here in the internet,will you pls help me on this...i felt so sad about the situation here in the philippines about the waiver thing you were saying...i just hope and pray that we can get through this....thanks for replying and god bless!!!

[Boiler 45,516]

212(a)(2) and 212(a)(6) are the big problems.

I believe you will not need a waiver at all, but I am not a Lawyer.

A etc is your Alien number.

[blueblue 0]

I tend to agree with Boiler. It doesn't _sound_ like it should be a problem or cause the need to file a waiver. But I am not a lawyer either and the embassy does not always act according to the law or process.

Boiler is also correct that the other numbers they mention there is your Alien (A) number they have assigned to you.

You might want to attend this chat session next Wednesday at 11am central time and ask the attorney on there for her opinion: www.visacentral.net.

Hi Shella,

Did you get any paperwork stating the number of years you are banned to enter US or not? How did you learn about the 5 year ban? Also, i would like to know if you were asked to sign a documented statement of your interrogation? Did they take your fingerprints? It would be nice if you could explain here what exactly happened to you at the port of entry.

Thanks,

cd1111
