where and how should i submit i-212 if im under 212(7) (A) (i)(I)? ?

[sgb1 0]

Hello. 

i am applying K1 visa and it has come to an interview part. 

i was removed from LAX oct 2019. because they thought i worked on my tourist visa. i didn't know anything at the time, not to mention i was traumatized the way they treated me. i just signed everything. 

i was removed under 212(7) (A) (i)(I) with 5 years bar. 

now this is where i am confused. i did a lot of research and 212(7) (A) (i)(I) is not a bar apparently. But on my removal paper it says i have 5 years bar. 

where do i submit my I-212 waiver? to USCIS or my local U.S consulate during interview?

Has anyone has same experience as me?

please advice me.

thank you so much

If you are about to be interviewed best to wait and see what is required, you might also need a I 601 in which case they can be filed together.

@Boiler i have received interview instruction from my local U.S embassy and waiver wasn't in checklist they have sent me. i have requested to schedule my interview and notified them as i was told. Would U.S embassy tell me to submit waiver before they approve me to schedule?

They need to interview you and review your case, now a solo I 212 can be submitted separately assume you were deported an I 601 needs to await the interview.

@Boiler no, I wasn't deported. i was denied entry at LAX.

[Boiler 45,994]

Denied entry does not need a waiver.

Removal with 5-year bar means you were deported.  Google "expedited removal vs deportation".

 

As Boiler said, wait until the interview to find out which waivers (if any) you will need.
