In short I went to the US last year with a valid B1/B2 visa, but because I didn't bring any money (I know this seems absurd...) and didn't book a return ticket, the officer said i might have immigration intent thus deported me at the port-of-entry and determined inadmissible with 5 year bar under 212(a)(7)(i)(I).
Actually I do not have immigration intent and hoping for a waiver to remove the 5-year bar so I can reapply a general business visit B1/B2 visa. But I'm not clear at all which waiver I should file. Although i212 seems to deal with the deportation at the port-of entry issue, but it didn't mention anywhere specifically the act 212(a)(7)(i)(I). This makes me worried if i212 is the right waiver I should file. Also, I wondered should i file any other waivers. Maybe i601or i192. I read them carefully, it seems to me that i601 was for more serious cause such as human trafficking and i192 was for the immigrant and both of them didn't mention specifically the act 212(a)(7)(i)(I) as well. So what waiver or waivers I should file? The thing is none of them have mentioned 212(a)(7)(i)(I).
I list the all passages where it has law sections on the document they give me at the deportation below:
1. You are prohibited from entering, attempting to enter, or being in the united states for a period of 5 years from the date of your departure from the US as consequence of your having been found inadmissible as an arriving alien in proceedings under section 235(b)(1) or 240 of the Act.
2.Pursuant to act 235(b)(10 of the immigration and Nationality Act (8 U.S.C.1225(b)(1)), the Department of Homeland Security has determined that you are inadmissible to the US under section 212(a)(7)(i)(I) of the Act, as amended , and therefore are subject to removal, in that: 1) you are not a citizen of national of the US; 2)You are a native of China and a citizen of China # you applied for admission at Detroit Metro Airpot as a B1 visitor for business. 4) you are an immigrant not in possession of a valid unexpired immigrant visa, reentry permit, border crossing card, or other valid entry document required by the Immigration and Nationality Act, To Wit: you are being processed as an Expedited Removal because you are not in possession of the funds necessary to purchase a return airplane ticket foreign.
And the homeland also expired my visa with a thick pen writing on it:212(a)(7)(i)(I).
What waiver do I need for 212(a)(7)(A)(i)(I)?
