  1. The reason was because of 10 year ban. It took about 8 weeks after I-212 approval for the embassy to email us with further instructions. No 2nd interview (appointment), just had to redo medical and send passport to the embassy. After I-212 approval, stay proactive and email the embassy letting them know it was approved and send them a copy of the approval (email & upload to CEAC).
  2. Hello! Our case has been resolved. In AP for 6 months but was told my husband needed an approved I-212 or wait out the ban. We filed the I-212.
  3. My spouse's I-212 waiver was approved at the beginning of December, 2023. From my understanding this approval was sent to the embassy and now we just need to wait. Does anyone know what to expect after an I-212 approval and how long it takes for the embassy to contact you regarding the next steps? We have been checking the CEAC website for updates but none so far. Thanks in advance!
  4. Hi @barby28! How long did it take after your I-212 approval for the embassy to contact you with further instructions? Was a second interview required?
  5. Hello, how long did it take you to hear back from the Consulate after the I-212 approval?
  6. Update: our I-212 was approved, 5 weeks after they accepted the form! We originally hired a lawyer for the whole process but with the long wait I had a lot of time to research and felt confident I could prepare the application so we decided to save some money and file it ourselves. Some cases may benefit from having a lawyer, but it is possible to file and get approved without one. Good luck to everyone on their journey!
  7. That's amazing, congratulations!! Did you file with a USCIS field office?
  8. Hello! Did you ever find out what the status meant or where it was processing? My husband filed his I-212 at a field office and we received the same status a day after they accepted the I-212.
  9. I think things have changed. Currently it depends on the situation (if the application is in the US or not, visa type, other waivers needed, etc). In our case USCIS will adjudicate the waiver. https://www.uscis.gov/forms/all-forms/direct-filing-addresses-for-form-i-212-application-for-permission-to-reapply-for-admission-into-the
  10. That's what I thought as well. We filed with a USCIS field office. When we received the receipt notice it stated the form was accepted at the field office then transferred to NBC.
  11. Hi everyone! Would anyone be kind enough to share their timeline when filing an I-212? How long did you wait for a decision? I know every case is different but it is nice to have other cases to reference 🙂 USCIS website shows 24 months but I saw on another site someone that received a recent approval that only took 7 days!! I-212 ONLY
