I have received my passport today after interview on 13-Sep-2012. It has IV visa on passport and one sealed envelope.

Immigrant Visa is valid: 2 months.

On my IV visa which they put on my passport, there is an Annotation on bottom of IV Visa mentioning “Annotation * * Wavier Section 212 ( i )". I am not able to understand what does that mean. My IV has been issued based on I-601 Wavier approval ( 212(a)(6)©(i) ).

Please any one let us know what that means and if anyone else also got IV stamp with same Annotation at the bottom.

Thanks a lot.

Congratulations......... and good luck!
