I still have 3 more years of my ban, i'm not clear but they gave me 7(a)(i)(I), it's been a month and still waiting an answer I do have faith that, he gonna avoid the waiver Because it doesn't make sense to me that they make me wait 1-3months just to tell me, i need to submit a waiver And on they say every case is different. And i believe they have the power to break that punishment.

Yes, i have the 5 year bar, that means i need the waiver i-212 and all the cases i see online it says that, they let you know what waiver you need right there, I haven't see anything talking about they keeping the passport and the CO Told us that he needs to contact cbp for an answer, and put our case to administration process and kept the passport.

Yes, i never stayed over than 6 months. And i don't really think my situation Apply for a i-601.

Hello, -Cbp canceled my tourist visa b1/b2 at the airport because apparently i was working and they gave me 5 year bar and after a month of that situation, I got married with my wife and she is a citizen. And we start the process but we never send a waiver because a lawyer told us, the tourist visa and residency visa are two different things and i have a bar for another tourist visa, that's why we never filled out the waiver but after long time waiting for uscis and nvc, we finally went to the interview at the embassy in dominican republic and the last lawyer that we hired here in dominican republic told us that when we get to the interview the counselor, he's going to require me a waiver but they didn't ask for a waiver but we talk about my 5 year bar and he told me he needs to contact cbp because they need to confirm if i'm going to need a waiver or not and he gave me a 221g and kept my passport and told me, you just need to wait because i don't have the power to do anything without contacting cbp. (they were to people at the time of my interview so it's no way that could be a mistake of him). my question is he keeping my passport is a big chance to get my visa? has anyone heard of a pardon waiver? What i should expect from them?
