The numbers refer to the very specific section of the code, so 212a, 2 a ii is a very specific reason for denial... 

even more specific from previous website 212a, 2 a II

 

(2) Criminal and related grounds.- 

(A) Conviction of certain crimes.- 

(i) In general.-Except as provided in clause (ii), any alien convicted of, or who admits having committed, or who admits committing acts which constitute the essential elements of- 

(I) a crime involving moral turpitude (other than a purely political offense) or an attempt or conspiracy to commit such a crime, or 

(II) a violation of (or a conspiracy or attempt to violate) any law or regulation of a State, the United States, or a foreign country relating to a controlled substance (as defined in section 102 of the Controlled Substances Act (21 U.S.C. 802)), is inadmissible. 

(ii) Exception.-Clause (i)(I) shall not apply to an alien who committed only one crime if- 

(I) the crime was committed when the alien was under 18 years of age, and the crime was committed (and the alien released from any confinement to a prison or correctional institution imposed for the crime) more than 5 years before the date of application for a visa or other documentation and the date of application for admission to the United States, or 

(II) the maximum penalty possible for the crime of which the alien was convicted (or which the alien admits having committed or of which the acts that the alien admits having committed constituted the essential elements) did not exceed imprisonment for one year and, if the alien was convicted of such crime, the alien was not sentenced to a term of imprisonment in excess of 6 months (regardless of the extent to which the sentence was ultimately executed).

Most likely your Drugs arrest.

This brings an automatic denial but the waiver opportunity.. i have no experience with sumbitting waivera, so hopefully those who have will chime in here... yes, it seems an over the top respinse to a single use so long ago, but the USCIS is bound by their rules,  and ther is a way for you to overcome it..i hope the journey, though delayed, is successful for you... read up on the waiver nd instructions then come back with more questions you may have.,. 

Thankyou.Its a single use marijuana 33 years ago.I live in London.I can file in London if I have a compelling reason.My daughter has an eating disorder.Do you recommend filing myself without an attorney?

You absolutely need a lawyer, you said some weeks  back you were getting one?

they made me take a drugs test.I was happy with that as I knew it would be negative.The lawyer said to ask the embassy for a new blue form before he would take me case and payment of $4000.I just got the ok I was allowed to apply for the waiver after my drugs results were sent to the embassy.I have to fill in i 601 and pay fee but I didnt know if I sent the form ,fee and my daughters medical records to London instead of a lock box be ok DIY I guess I should hire the lawyer but its so expensive

Waivers take much longer than 6 weeks, not how you file one.

The I-601 waiver is filed with USCIS not the embassy.  I would suggest contacting Lizz Cannon   http://www.lizzcannonlaw.com/   She gives free consults.
