Hi everyone,

I am Polish,subject to the INA 212(e) and want a waiver of the two-year foreign residence requirement. I am subject to the 2 rule because of the Exchange Visitor Skills List. I was in US in 2004-2005 and after one year of training came back to Poland on time. My restriction suppose to be over by this November but during these two years, but I was away from my country working in UK for 7 months so unfortunatelly this time doesn'r count. I have an American fiancee and we want to apply for K1 wisa, but first we need to get this waiver.

Our short story, written by my fiancee is here:

We were thinking about many ways for me to get to US as soon as possible, but I see that we need to get this waiver first. I was following this web:

http://travel.state.gov/visa/temp/info/info_1288.html

and trying to do the first step(filling the application on line) but I am stucked, when it goes about Statement of reason. I man this sentance:

"Please write a statement demonstrating why ......... is eligible to receive a waiver of the two-year home country requirement of the exchange visitor program. The length of the statement may vary.

What should I write here?

1. Should I write that my Internship was sponsored by private sector( I have a written proof from this american agency) and not by any of Governments

2. Should I mention that I came back home on time (I have a board pass)

3. That I am going to apply for K1 visa

4. Tourist visa

5. I am subject to this restriction because of my Skills, but during my stay in US I didn't have any training and I worked as a waitress. Should I mention about it?

Can you please help me? I dont want to make any mistake.

Can I apply for a waiver when I am in Poland or my fiancee can do it for me? What is the next step after this application on line?

Thank you for any advice and help in this matter.

And I am sorry for my English, it is not my native language but I am trying as good as I can :)

I would discuss this with a qualifed immigration attorney - it would be worth the cost of a phone consult to be 100% clear, and I wouldn't want to base a decision on responses from an immigration forum where people are not experienced in this issue. Good luck.
