Don't worry, you only need the medical results to take to the interview, and I suggest you to go to the second clinic since everyone goes to the first one, they line is way too long but if you go to the other one ( white and blue clinic) it will be faster..just take a look aroung before you get in the line.. I got there at 6:45 am and the line was not that long... Best of luck

thanks catknit and good luck to you : about the other comments I have nothing to say... you don't make me feel bad at all... I know my storie and what I really did.. if you continue saying that what am going trough is what I deserve you wasting your time.I'm on this website to get answers and to support others not to attack anyone or try to make them feel bad saying things like some ppl say do.. am not even reading those comments.. Thanks a lot to those who really helped me with their answers that's all I was looking for..

Thank you for your words : life's journey

I'm already working on it. thank you for taking the time to respond to me.. Good luck I found the answers I wanted so you are right!

aiidrian: same thing to you.. how was I supposed to know that I was yelling??? I didn't know that.. I said I was sorry !!! why aren't you reading what I say?? when i send emails I always do that.. and didn't know that I was yelling.. maybe it's the same when Emailing ppl. Idk.. and I said I didnt have a life.. because I did not work, I did no have money, I did not go anywhere.. I was literally sitting at home the whole time... knowing that I was not doing the right thing. my boyfriend was gone all day at work.. that's why I meant.. why do I want to go back?? I honestly think it would be easier if he moves to my country but he has a son so that's not an option... just want to be with him... thanks.

ohh well I didn't know that... just wanted to make sure some ppl read that part... didn't mean to yell.. Thanks !

SAN DIEGO??? what you mean with : " There are more decent people that chose legal route" THAT MEANS THAT IM indecent to you ?? obviously you didn't read very well did you?? I NEVER SAID THAT I WAS THE VICTIM... I CHOSE TO BE WITH MY BOYFRIEND.. BUT I WAS PLANNING ON COMMING BACK TO MY COUNUTRY... I have proof of that since they saw my ticket in hand... I was comming back to my country after Newyears.. (3 months later) I WAS GOING TO SETTLE DOWN IN MY COUNTRY..BECAUSE I KNEW IN MY HEART I DIDN'T BELONG THERE...I KNEW I DIDN'T HAVE A LIFE THERE.. SAYING AT HOME ALL DAY LONG.. NOT GOING ANYWHERE BUT JUST TO WAIT FOR MY BF TO BE HOME WITH ME.. WASN'T A LIFE...IT'S NOT THAT I WAS HAVING A GOOD TIME AND MAKING MONEY WHEN I WAS ON MY TOURIST VISA... I DID NOT WORK OR DID ANYTHING INDECENT LIKE YOU SAY... I MADE A MISTAKE AND I'M PAYING THE CONSEQUENCES! SO I WAS NOT TAKING A SHORTCUT...I'm not looking for sympathy on here either.. I found a temporary job just to make money for the holidays which was not right either. IM AWARE OF THAT. but I was not trying to take a shortcut.... if I wanted to take A shortcut then I would illegaly cross the border or would have done something else.. but I'm also waiting here... so thank you for your comment ANYWAY.. I NEVER SAID IM THE VICTIM AND I'M NOT TRYING TO EXCUSE MYSELF!!! JUST TRYING TO FIND ANSWERS!!

THANK YOU ALL...

Thank you Proudafrican.. I guess that's what I need to do.. just need to find a reliable lawyer..Good luck to you!!

Ok I appreciate all the advices, but some of you guys are being very unfair, since you don't know the storie, first of all I'm not trying to sound like a victim here, I was just asking for your advice, I mean seriously, why would I lie to everyone on here?? I needed an advice ok??I'm not lying to anyone,I feel so frustrated. I AM NOT THE VICTIM and I'm aware of that, I chose to stay with my boyfriend but don't you get it?? I had a Tourist visa for years, and I never tried to live in the USA. I never cared abt it, but I fell in love with my boyfriend, you have any idea how It feels to be in another country, not having anyone but just the person you love. I didn't know what to do, I know it was not right that I basically lived with my boyfriend for that period of time but I wasn't trying to hurt anyone, I mean I was not working or applied for a job in that period. That's why I'm flat broke right now... I used all my mexican credit cards to pay for my stuff for a long LONG TIME!!!! Then when I didn't have any money left, my boyfriend took care of me... I mean we would go on trips together since he was off for MONTHS.. I never tried to take advantage of my Tourist visa I JUST WANTED TO BE WITH MY BOYFRIEND... but still I know that MANY PEOPLE use their tourist visa to stay in the USA, get a job and they don't even leave EVER!! I did not do that... I'm also aware that I shouldn't have applied to get a"TEMPORARY" job.. I mean,I WAS SO WORRIED ABOUT MY SITUATION AND MY LIFE THAT I FELT TERRIBLE THAT I HAVE SPENT EVERY PENNY I HAD WHEN I FISRT MOVE IN WITH MY BOYFRIEND..come on, if you guys are telling me that I AM THE ONLY PERSON WHO DOES THAT IN THE USA !! YOU ARE WRONG!! Because everyone knows that TONS , MILLIONS OF PEOPLE ARE ILEGAL IN THE USA, and don't give a sh.... about their immigration status they don't even pay taxes, THEY ARE ILEGAL AND THEY ARE FOOLING THE GOVERMENT THE WHOLE TIME.. AND NOW YOU ALL THINK THAT I'M A CRIMINAL BECAUSE I APPLIED TO GET A TEMPORARY JOB FOR "2 MONTHS" I WAS NOT GONNA STAY THERE.... I'M NOT LYING TO ANYONE ON HERE.. there is no reason for me to do that since I NEEDED AN ADVICE OK? I must be very stupid not to tell the truth .. I WOULD BE LYING TO MYSELF...

Im not the victim but I am not a criminal either IF I Kept THAT SSC It's because I WAS NOT AN AMERICAN CITIZEN AND YOU GUYS SHOULD KNOW THAT YOU NEED YOUR SSC to almost anything.. I HAD A BANK ACCOUNT SINCE I WAS AN STUDENT , I NEEDED MY SSNUMBER AND I DIDN'T KNOW THE NUMBER,OFCOURSE I KEPT THE CARD WITH ME ... now i think abt it and realize that it was very stupid of me.. bc you guys are right.. I was not planning on getting a job or was trying to take advantage of it so I shouldn't keep it. I didn't force my boyfriend or asked him to scratch it off.thats why I was so upset, even if i was not using the card at all.. I DIDN'T LIKE WHAT HE DID.. BECAUSE I WANTED TO KEEP MY CARD W ME ... DOES THAT MAKE ME A CRIMINAL?? Just because I wanted to keep that card. I NWEVER USED IT.. AND WHEN I APPLIED TO GET THAT TEMPORARY JOB, I DID NOT USE THE CARD.. I NEVER USED IT.. EVER!!!

the officer said that He knew I didn't work... He said: don't even worry about that... the problem here is that you had a false document in your hands... so that's the problem here.. not that I got a job when I was on my tourist visa.. I mean IT WAS NOT RIGHT I KNOW THAT. BUT LIKE I SAID I WAS NOT GONNA STAY IN THE USA FOREVER IT WAS TIME FOR ME TO COME hOME...

I have heard many stories at the american consulate, TONS OF PEOPLE TRYING TO GET A GREEN CARD OR CITIZENSHIP, EVEN THOUGH THEY WERE ILEGAL FOR YEARS IN THE USA.. getting married to an american citizen in order to fix their situation or even worst, getting caught selling drugs or stuff like that, they get deported..and after requesting a waiver they get approved?? I mean is that fair??

so please if you are just gonna be rude and will try to make me feel guilty, then I have no interest in what you have to say to me... if you are on this forum it's because you must have done something wrong as well, otherwise why do you need a waiver?? I don't know your situation but I'm nobody to judge anyone.. every storie is different..

P.S.

Please don't get me wrong some ppl really helped me on here..but others seem to be "attacking" when tha's the last thing we need. Thanks

CANADIAN WIFE.. I TRULY APPRECIATE YOUR COMMENT AND YOUR HELP.. GOOD LUCK TO EVERYONE..

Thank you guys... I tottaly agree with you Vanesa & Tonny, It was MY MISTAKE TO CARRY ON THAT SSC IF IT WAS USELESS ... YOU ARE RIGHT... I'M SO STUPID FOR HAVE DONE THAT.. ON THE OTHER HAND.. I DON'T WANT MY BOYFRIEND TO GET IN TROUBLE..BUT I THINK IS NOT FAIR THAT'S HAPPENING TO ME.. I NEVER USED IT... IT WAS MY BOYFRIEND'S MISTAKE THAT HE ALTERED THE CARD AND MY MISTAKE THAT I KEEP IT... I CANNOT PROVE HE DID IT, BUT IT WASN'T RIGHT EITHERWAY... I'M SO MAD AT MYSELF... I DID EVERYTHING TO BE WITH HIM.LEAVING EVERYTHING BEHIND TO BE WITH HIM,AND NOW.. I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT'S GONNA HAPPEN. I DON'T THINK THAT A LAWYER CAN HELP ME.. AS FAR AS I KNOW LAWYERS JUST TAKE YOUR MONEY BUT DON'T HELP THAT MUCH... PLUS THEY ARE WAY TOO EXPENSIVE... I'M KINDA UPSET THAT MY BOYFRIEND PUT ME THROUGH THIS SITUATION I MEAN, HE SHOULD JUST MOVE TO MY COUNTRY BUT UNFORTUNATELY HE HAS A SON AND HE CANNOT LEAVE HIM.... I'M SO DEPRESSED AND DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO...

YES THEY DENIED ME BECAUSE OF THE SOCIAL SECURITY CARD... I DIDN'T DO ANYTHING WRONG... AND THERE IS NO WAY THEY ARE TALKING ABOUT SOMETHIGN ELSE...I DON'T EVEN KNOW HOW THAT WAIVER THING WORKS... THAN YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR ANSWERS I TRULY APPRECIATE IT.

So I was denied under 212 (a) (6) © (i) section but it's all a misunderstanding and that's why I'm so upset about all this. I don't want to sound like a victim but is not fair what I'm going through ..

I was on a student exchange visa in the USA when I met muy fiancè... then When my student visa expired my boyfriend invited me to stray with him for a few months while He was off. So I came back to Mexico and went back to the US on my Tourist visa (that I got 6 years ago). I basically moved in with my boyfriend .. but I never wanted to have problems with immigration so, I never overstayed my tourist visa.I would leave the USA every 2,3,4 and even 5 months to return to my country IN ORDER TO KEEP MY TOURIST VISA.

I was not allowed to work on a tourist visa so I didn't work while I was there... my boyfriend took care of me the whole time, he paid for everything. He even gave me money to pay off my credid cards in Mexico.my phone, gym membership,clothes,EVERYTHING....

I stayed with him for 1.5 years ( left the US every 2 months or so ,as I have explained above) and I was aready tired of my situation in that country. Even though He gave me money anytime I needed something.. I didn't like that- but I was not supposed to work on my tourist visa so. I didn't even think about getting a job back then.

My boyfriend asked me to go on a trip with him so we did..it was our third trip together, but I told him that it would be the last time I was commign back to the USA with him.. I couldn't live that life forever not having money for anything.. or living on another country on that status.

I was not gonna ask him to marry me ofcourse..but I also felt it was time for me to settle down, get a job, and hopefully get married and have my own family.

I dated him for 2 years. and I was doing all those things such as leaving my family ,friends and country behind to be with him.. I felt lonely the whole time I was in the USA. I had my boyfriend but still I didn't have a life, because he went back to work eventually and I would take care of his house and our dog but nothing else... I was so sad bc I didn't knwo what was the best thing to do.. I didn't want to leave him because I am in love with him and just don't imagine my life without him on the other hand I was ALONE! HAVING NO FAMILY,FRIENDS NOR A JOB..I was always depressed. because I didn't see my relationship going anywhere back then.. (I felt that my boyfriend didn't feel like we should get married since I was living with him already).He probably thought I could live in the US with him forever..IDK

One day my boyfriend and I went to the lake to check on his boat, andI felt into the water with my purse on. everything I had in my wallet got wet, but I was too upset that I got wet that I didn't even care abt my stuff in the wallet. I didn't take anything out of my wallet that day, the next day I was taking my stuff out of the wallet and had my SOCIAL SECURITY CARD IN MY HANDS.. (I GOT A SSC WHEN I WAS ON A STUDENT VISA)the SSC was ofcourse not VALID FOR WORK.

So I was with my boyfriend when I said to him that: everything would be easier for me if I had a SSC valid to work so I could actually have a life here and stay with you.

He never understood why I was given that SSC if I was not an american citizen and He thought that the card it was not real at all... since it had that valid for work ONLY WITH AUTHORIZATION thing on it.

He takes my SSC and went into the bathroom with it.. I asked him what was he doing but He just told me not to worry. then He gave me the SSC but it was changed. HE DID SCRATCH OFF THE VALID FOR WORK ONLY WITH AUTHORIZATION THING...then he said.. NOW YOU CAN STAY WITH ME FOREVER! YOU DON'T HAVE TO LEAVE EVER! ANDHE SMILED...

I was SOOOOOO ANGRY I KNOW HE DID SOMETHING WRONG AND EVEN WORST WITHOUT MY CONSENT!!! But He was just trying to make me feel better I guess, He knew I never used that SSC anyway so He didn't think it was such a big deal that He changed it... anyway.. nothing happened.. I just forgot about it and kept my card with me in my wallet..

HUGE MISTAKE!!!!

Since I was ready to come back to my country and settle down.. I decided to get a babysitter job just to make some money for the holidays.. Like I said before I didn't have a penny, I stayed with my boyfriend for almost 1.5 years and I was SICK OF MY FINANCIAL SITUATION... never had money to buy him christmas,valentines or Birthday gifts EVER!! same thing to his family.. never brought anything with us everytime we came over his parent'¡s house.. because I DID NOT HAVE MONEY.. (NEVER WORKED). So I'm thinking.. I'm going back to Mexico in 3 months, so maybe I should get a temporary job just to make money for the hilidays and I did... I applied to get a nanying job...

I got the job.. but I was supposed to start a week after our return to the US from our last trip together... which didn't happen... because immigration officers noticed I was spending too much time in the USA and decided to go though my stuff at the airport... they found out I was planning on getting a job. and foun out about my SOCIAL SECURITY CARD AS WELL.. so they sent me back home and took my TOURIST VISA AWAY... It's been almost 11 months and I'm still in Mexico.

My boyfriend came to see me a week after I was sent back home (10 months ago) and asked me to marry him so that we could be together.so He sent in the fiance application and had my interview 2 weeks ago the officer asked me why did I have that ssc with me.. I got too nevous and I just told them that the SSC got wet when I was in the lake with my boyfriend I didn't tell him that MY BOYFRIEND CHANGED IT.. ofcourse I didn't know what to say..I got denied under 212 a 6 c 1 section..

and now I'm requesting a waiver... WHAT SHOULD I DO?? I'M SO CONFUSED.. IT'S NOT FAIR... I didn't dot it. my only mistake was to to fall in love with an american citizen?? my boyfriend did but He was just joking around trying to make me feel better... what should I tell immigration next time the ask me??? PLEASE GIVE ME YOUR ADVICE...

I DID NOT USE THE SSC EVER.. THEY COULD TYPE IN their system THE NUMBERS AND CONFIRM THAT I NEVER USED IT TO GET A JOB OR ANYTHING.. I SWEAR I NEVER USED IT.. EVER!!!!

I HAS TOURIST VISA SINCE I WAS 21 AND WENT TO THE USA MANY TIMES AND NEVER TRIED TO STAY OR LIVE THERE.. THEY SHOULD CHECK THEIR RECORDS... IT WAS NEVER MY INTENTION TO WORK IN THE USA.. BUT EVERYTHING CHANGED WHEN I MET MY BOYFRIEND.. I NEVER TRIED TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THAT SSC... WE JUST WANTED TO BE TOGETHER ... PLEASE HELP!!!

I scheduled my interview last Monday and they had the last week of September and 3 last weeks of October available .....GOOD LUCK!!!
