This really upsets me because my fiance (a citizen of Guatemala) will obviously need a waiver. Does this mean that he can't get one? What else would we be able to do?? If we have a lawyer, would we be able to appeal a denial??

While reading some older threads, I found one post that mentioned countries that participate in the VWP. I looked it up on the USCIS web site and Guatemala wasn't listed as a country that participated! This really upsets me because my fiance (a citizen of Guatemala) will obviously need a waiver. Does this mean that he can't get one? What else would we be able to do?? If we have a lawyer, would we be able to appeal a denial??

VWP is Visa Waiver Program and means that the citizens of countries listed do not need a tourist visa to come and VISIT the USA for 90 days.
Waivers for inadmisibility are different and available to those who qualify no matter from what county they are coming.

Ook, thank you. I was starting to wonder if I had any hope in getting him home.
