Two Years Down

[Traviesa 0]

Today is August 8, making it 2 years of our ban served and one year to go. So many of you were around and remember when all that happened. Can you believe it's been 2 years? Around this time next year, we may very well be getting a visa.

The ban and reasons for the ban wont hold a denial for javi in the future?

What is the ban for??

The ban is not really a ban per se but more of a required period of remission. Our 10 year ban for illegal presence is still in force until 2013 but we can do the waivers for that one.

Ban was for drug addiction. Long story, but my husband isn't a drug user.

so hes still on a 10 year ban from entering the US? and with the reasons for the ban do you think a waiver will allow the ban to fall?

im just worried about you and javi being disappointed if he isnt able to enter the US within the next 8 years.

Illegal entrance and the deportation are waiverable. Of course there's no guarantee that they'll approve them but we tend to think our hardships are sufficient. After the 3 year remission period the drug issue no longer counts for anything.

Good luck to you both. Hope you get what you have waited so very long for.

You of course have the right to say whatever you want-we've heard it all before. Most here know the truth, the circumstances surrounding it, the efforts we have gone to in order to fix a mistake that wasn't ours, etc. Everything's not always black and white and unfortunately, the people we rely on to manage our lives and futures aren't always right, or good.

Congratulations on crossing that 2 year mark!

I can remember when Javier was denied and can't believe it has already been 2 years. Hopefully this last year will go even faster.

Stay strong.

Miss_Liss thankfully you know not to pay attention to people who don't get it and don't know the whole story. You're more than half way there and when it comes time for your waiver submission, you'll fly through it with the pilot program. Hang in there and stay strong!
