hi ,i was denied and then approved a k-3 in 2003 .the code on my visa was 212{>d}{3}{a}{2}{a}{>i}{i} can any one tell me what it meant conviction wise ,?thanks.

I think you need to start doing some work in finding out what all that means.

er , i know that ,hence the post !!

The code as you've written it is a little confusing. The 212(d) part means that you you have to apply for a waiver before your visa can be granted, the 3(a) is the part that says that once your waiver is approved by the AG (Attorney General) you may be granted a temporary visa, but you may have some letters or numbers missing in the rest of it because I could not find the 2(a)(ii) part.

Read through this, scroll towards the bottom and read the section on "Waivers of Ineligibilty" and find the paragraph w/ the codification that you have on your denial.
You were denied in 2003? Why are you asking the reason for your denial now, 4 years later? Are you applying for a different visa or trying to get a waiver for your original visa application?
Good luck!

-P

I meant by doing the work yourself. I for one would know what the reasons for denial were if I had received a denial even if it meant I had to trawl the internet to find out. VJ is a great site for helping out people, but do make a start yourself first before relying on other to do the searching for you!

hi ,thanks ,i wasnt being rude !! i know what i was denied for but the codes dont make sense ,thought i would see if there were any imm boffins who could help.

ah ok, maybe you could post as such next time. My first thought when I saw the post was that you could not be bothered to look it up yourself so asked on here.

I wish you luck if you are able to file a waiver.
