Sounds like you were allowed to withdraw your application for entry rather than deported.

“If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles. If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat. If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle.”

Yes, it just says refused entry (and I think the form I was given is I-877 - just a copy of my sworn statement, not a paper I was filed separately). It states nothing about a ban, nor does the stamp in my passport.

If you were given I-877, then this indicates withdrawal of application for admission, no expedited removal/removal proceedings, and no 5-year ban.

If you were given I-867, then this indicates expedited removal and carries a 5-year ban.

Just came back and checked, big sigh of relief as it is I-877 :)

I am only now starting to feel like a full human again, and I have just briefly looked before, assuming that it was the same number. Ok, one bullet ditched :D

Btw I love all the hearts under your posts!

Good news about the I-877. Now, make sure that you have not misrepresented yourself on that statement, as well as that there is no mention of expedited removal on the form.

You still need to "overcome" your marijuana use count, which may or may not make you inadmissible.

Yes, these tickers are awesome!

There is no mention of expedited removal and I was very careful not to misrepresent myself. I disclosed my future intent and was very honest about everything (including the marijuana, unfortunately. But he did ask specifically). I know that lying to them is a big, big no no.

Robert talked to an immigration attorney yesterday, who confirmed what I was thinking and you guys saying - no tourist or other visa for me in the foreseeable future or possibly ever. And he was concerned about the drug use, but seemed fairly confident it can be done, and maybe we will have to file a waiver.

Anyway, I decided to be proactive in that matter, since this cat is very much out of the box and alive, and I have an appointment with internationally accredited psychologist in two weeks to get an assessment for drug use/abuse, plus I intend to do drug tests to prove that I have been clean and not using anything.

The good of this all is that my bf finally yelled at his divorce attorney, as all this is fairly premature untill we can even file. There is a court date with motion for bifurcation on June 17th, so fingers crossed and prayers to all the gods out there that it will move forward.

An interesting point the immigration attorney made was that in an election year, if democrats are in power, they push USCIS to issue new citizenship in order to boost the electorate with latinos and so any other issues get slower, as there is less manpower available. Not sure how true that is, but it was an interesting notion.

I may have to get a ticker, too :D although for now probably a depressing one counting from the day I was refused :)
