Hello,

 

Wife had interview on June 13 at US embassy in Colombia and was denied because of the 5 year ban given to her 2 and half years ago. Nothing new to us since we were expecting that. 

The officer told us we qualified for the I-212 but I'm not sure where to send the application. She never mentioned anything about the 601 so after reading I have broken it down to 2 places but still confused.

 

The office in charge of our I-130 was/is the Texas service center.

The port of entry where she was found inadmissible was at the Dallas Forth Worth airport.

 

Dallas has a local office but Texas service center also has jurisdiction over that local office. Also when I check processing times for that specific form only the Nebraska and Vermont center come up in the drop down menu.

 

Thanks.

Based on my reading, since you are filing for an immigration visa (CR1) and don’t need an I601, it appears you file it at the field office where the removal occurred.

 

Good Luck!

USCIS Field Office with jurisdiction over the place where your deportation or removal proceedings were held

If you are inadmissible because you had previously accrued unlawful presence in the aggregate of 1 year or more in the United States, and you departed the United States and entered or attempted to reenter the United States without being admitted (INA section 212(a)(9)(C)(i)(I)), you may not have been in removal proceedings. In this case, you should file the application with the USCIS Field Office having jurisdiction over your intended place of residence in the United States.
