  1. Hi, just read this. How did you find out about the ban? Were you deported when you were a F1 visa student?
  2. Hi, I just found this thread. This is great news - do you care to elaborate on what happened here and how they reversed it?
  3. Sorry lol! Thank you. Sorry for the dumb question, but would you have to ask them to contact one of these departments in DC or do you do it by yourself?
  4. It is definitely worth a try. Do you mind re attaching the policy you are referring to? Sorry what do you mean by DC?
  5. That sounds great overall, but shouldn't the CO have been informed about how that policy works? Because then I obviously shouldn't have been given this ban in the first place. Now if it is in their system (probably, right?), how does that get removed if you cannot appeal the CO's decision? If any of those options you presented were to be filed: wouldn't the 10 year bar, if in the system, just lead to a denial? Just trying to understand how I don't have a bar according to your understanding, but the CO was so direct and quick to tell me I did.
  6. Yes, D/S with no specific date. Never was brought in front of a IJ/IO, was never in removal proceedings as I departed on my own. The SEVIS was terminated by a university official.
  7. So to clarify: I was admitted as D/S, with no end date. Yes, the SEVIS was terminated by a university official. I was never in removing proceedings or brought ahead of a IJ/IO. I found out about the bar by the consulate officer.
  8. Thank you for your input. My documents that I had brought with me (and never was given the opportunity to present because the interview quite literally was over in 30 seconds) showed I have property in my home country, 1 business that I run, more immediate family, an ongoing master program at university and more evidence.
  9. Got it. Any idea how it's looking for Sweden?
  10. Got it. So regardless, a waiver is needed. The waiver you mentioner earlier though for tourist visas: is this something I would have to reapply with, or contact the embassy for?
  11. I understand. Does the wait time differ depending on what country the beneficiary is in? And it is absolutely certain that they would require a waiver?
  12. Is the waiver then submitted with the I-130 packet (what exactly do you send in at this time?), or only if USCIS would request a waiver? Is there also a significant difference between this scenario, or if you would apply for a K1-visa? Would this get approved despite the ban, or this also includes having to include a waiver?
  13. Ouch. That's a long time. Now if it would come to marrying a USC, how would that process look like in terms of the ban and waiver? And processing time? That makes sense. Thanks
