GETTING MARRIED WITH 5 YEAR ENTRY BAN

[TacoBellForLife 0]

Hello,

Few days ago i got denied entring the US on turist visa and got banned for the next 5 years . My 10 year turist visa also has been taken away. I have a boyfriend in California and we been talking about getting married for the past few months. Now since i cant enter the US he is planning on coming to my home country so we can do it here. my question is: Can i still apply for the green card , will they let me in back before 5 year period?! he cant stay in my home country for longer than 2-3 weeks cause of his work but we dont want to be separated.

You have to wait until your ban is over before you move to the USA. Getting married won't change anything. 

 

So I guess the reason for the ban was illegal work or something. Since they don't give bans for anything. Now you just gotta wait and face consequences of your actions.

On what basis did you get the ban?  Sorry, but we all have endured separation....some longer than others.....

One option to avoid separating: You can marry and live in your country.

Visiting and immigrating to the US is a privilege..sounds like you abused that privilege.

Your BF can sponsor you, process is a year or so after you have married, there is a waiver for the deportation, I 212.

Can she re-enter prior to the end of the ban even with a wavier?

thats what i have read before... that i can apply for a waiver. Just looking for someone who have done it before not sure if i apply for waiver after or before getting married ? and how the whole process looks like

 

yes, i was babysitting a few time during my stay on B1/B2 visa. thats the reason for ban...

You can apply for a waiver if your deportation was due to immigrant intent on a tourist visa. Now your post seems confusing though because were you deported or just denied entry? There’s a big difference between the two and it is my understanding that they give you an option at POE and you can withdrawal your application for entry and not get a ban and just be denied entry or if you don’t withdrawal and try to go in anyways and they decide not to you’re given a ban. Which one did you get? If you were just denied entry there’s no ban attached to you.

Yes i got deported ad banned for 5 years. sorry for the confusion.

You have to get married first. File for spouse visa. Get denied after 12 to 14 months of waiting. Then file a waiver. Wait again. That s how it works I think. 

 

Be prepared for loong separation.

Yeah, I second that. I think that’s what you have to do. It is also my understanding that you have to do it through a lawyer if you’re filing a waiver. So yeah be prepared for a long long road and very pricey process.

If all she needs is a I212 then she could theoretically get that and apply for non immigrant visa, getting a B with this background seems extraordinary unlikely.

 

I 212 times seem all over the place could of course be hit with a Misrep whatever ban at the Interview, probably unlikely.

I 212 can be applied for any time, 601 would be after the interview.

Oh, OK.  The I-212 would just give her permission to reapply for a valid entry visa..........she then would have to apply for spousal, K-1, another B2, etc...

So, then:

1.  Marry

2.  Apply for 212 wavier

3.  Apply for CR-1

or is there a better sequence?

Would being married make 212 approval more likely?

2 and 3 together

 

Hmm, good question, I have always assumed that the answer would be yes, if you have a US Spouse and are seeking to Immigrate, not sure I have ever seen that specifically stated, seems obvious it would...
