I212 waiver

[treboy 0]

Hi Everybody

My lawyer told me I need to file an I212 waiver, here the complexity of the whole thing, I live in Canada with my father, but I was deported to my home country in the Caribbean, my lawyer told me it would be best for me to go home and operate from there, but while here in Canada my fiance and my son are with me, I am not sure they could adjust to life in the Caribbean and that's why I gave it a go here in Canada, but neither of us are employed because we don't have any legal status here. So how should we proceed with this? can anyone help please, any advise or information would be greatly appreciated.

Is your fiance a US citizen? If so, your fiance first needs to file and receive approval for a Fiance Visa petition. Once it is time for your interview, you will go to the interview where you will be denied and have to file the waiver. The waiver hardships will be based on the reason why your fiance and son could not relocate to your country including health issues, employment issues, language issues, safety issues, financial issues, etc.

You would have to find out if there is a consulate in Canada that will process third-country visas - my guess is the answer is no and you would have to return to your home country for the interview -- that's probably why your lawyer suggested that. You would also have to wait out the waiver processing there unless you have a way to legally get back into Canada (without passing through the US).

Start by reading the guides on the K1 visa process. Then read the links in your other post to begin to understand the 212 criteria.

Treboy,

I just want to add that waiver approvals take a really long time here in Canada. I'm not sure about the I-212 but for the most part they do take a while. What Caribbean country are you from? because if you research that country's waiver approvals you might be luckier and get approval faster.
