Form I-192

[dashsplash 0]

The form I-192, can it be used by a person waiting for his immigration visa number to enter the US on a temporary basis, or to wait there for the visa? What is it basically for? Any details about this form or experiences would be appreciated.

Regards,

Adnan Usman.

This is a waiver used in certain cases where a visitor would be ineligible to visit the USA for many reasons covered under Section 221g, the purpose of the waiver is for things like humanitarian reasons such as medical grounds like not being able to get medical treatment in their country.

Intelligibilities covered by 221g can be found here: http://travel.state.gov/visa/frvi/ineligib...ities_1364.html

GROUNDS COVERED BY THE WAIVER

A waiver under section 212(d)(3) of the I.N.A. allows nonimmigrant applicants to overcome many grounds of inadmissibility. Some of the grounds that are covered by the waiver include permanent grounds of inadmissibility, such as fraud or criminal conduct, as well as some grounds that are limited in duration, such as previous unlawful presence.
