Because someone is from England, that does not necessarily mean that he or she must have good grammar.

You said you lived in the US for 22 years. How did you get there, how did you deal with your issues in so doing.

So you went through this process before, how did that work out?

I was denied an esta to visit the USA a few years ago so I applied at embassy to visit and was given a B2  visa after 6 months.This is IV and a lot more involved.

Yes - posession/marijuana use has no time limitation in U.S. immigration law. I'm so sorry for you, but the good news is at least that there is a path for you.

yes I am grateful for that.I will contact a lawyer tommorrow Thanks so much 

2 minutes ago, Suss&Camm said:

You can ask for it to be returned to you.

Thankyou I may have to do that if I need it.So 3 grams of marijuana 33 years ago is definately a reason for inadmissability?I was just in my 20s It was a one time thing.Thats very sad but it is what it is I have to accept it.I have 3 american children and 4 american grandchildren.I lived in USA 22 year but abandoned my green card when i moved back to England 10 years ago.All my family live in USA now my parents deceased.I am alone here now

I would still have your daughter contact a lawyer as mentioned,  but I think you'll "only" need a waiver for the marijuana. The prostitution does not make you inadmissible since it was over 10 years ago.

Your daughter is a qualifying relative for the i-601 waiver for you. They take about a year to process and there are no guarantees. If you are granted a waiver, up to date documents of what ever other documents they ask for will ofc also be needed.

Good luck to you and please keep us updated.

Oh man a year .OK They will have my passport for a very long time.

Yes was 33 years ago when i was in my 20s I am nearly 60.I have no arrests or issues since.The officer said I would need a waiver but I think he said my daughter could apply.but I dont have instructions how to do this Very grateful for replys this has been worrying me for last several montths

On the form says refused but then says send more documents.

2 minutes ago, Suss&Camm said:

Well,  that's the thing. Prostitution only disqualifies you if it was within 10 years. Since this was 33 years ago, the OP is left with the marijuana offense which is a single offense less than 30 grams and over 15 years ago - 

I'm surprised that the slip asks for documents but doesn't say anything else.

Well that is the next step, as I said I am not sure there is a waiver option.

Thankyou I just sent the lawyer you recommended an email.

I think you raised this in one of your prior threads, obviously with Prostitution and Drug issues this is not DIY and a child petitioning for a Parent can not apply for certain crimes to be waived.

May I please ask what DIY means and if I dont do anything it will just sit.I was not given a waiver form etc

i want to say I am very grateful to you as you always try to help me when I am soo confused.I appreciate this very very much but I still feel lost on what my consulate officer said.I had to do sputum tests and provide my daughters taxs.I gave him the old court records .But now they do have my medical and all documents will they send me waiver instructions?

I have had my medical and interview.I told the consulate officer I was arressted 33 years ago for prostitution and 3 grams of marijuana.On the blue form he asked me to supply more documents for my petitions taxs but he did not tick waiver box or give me information except my daughter who is a US Citazen may be able to apply for a waiver for me.On my ceac it says refused but they do have my medical and all required documents.I was not told how to apply for waiver or my daughter apply waiver.My question is will I need a waiver if arrest was 33 years ago? Am I expected to file by myself or will they contact me how to apply?I dont know how to proceed.My mdical expires in 3 months They have my passport and all my documents.I was not told how to proceed with a waiver but maybe because they did not have medical at time of interview or all required documents.If they now have everything will they wait on me to send in waiver without telling me how or i need one?

Have you had your interview yet?  I remember you saying back at the beginning of this thread (in August) that you were having one----so how did it go?

Hi yes I went for interview it was refused as i needed additional documents I told officer about my old arrests and he said my daughter may have to ask for waiver.I dont know if they mean she will have to but if so how does that work?Will it tae long?

Last week it was drugs. Now prostitution. Or have you been involved in both?

Well both at the same time 33 years ago.I had 3 grams of marijuana when arrested for prostitution.It was a long long time ago

i have been to my interview and was refused as I needed to prove domicile.that my daughter lives in California.I am English I was arrested 30 years ago for prostitution and pocession of 3 grams of marijuana in Tampa Florida..The consulate officer said its best for me to get an attorney and my daughter may have to file a waiver?How long does that take if she has to file a waiver because of my old arrests 33 years ago to be exact 

Hi I may need a waiver as inadmissable for prostition 33 years ago. Will the officer waive it at my interview or how long does it take to get a waiver?

You need to take a look at your other thread again and re-read the responses there. You got some good advice on the first thread.

I-601A, Application for Provisional Unlawful Presence Waiver can i submit that before interview? Or will they tell me i have to submit after interview?

Arrest was in USA and I have interviw for green card 

On 8/27/2017 at 11:13 PM, Boiler said:

Waivers are not adjudged by the Consulate.

sorry what does that mean?If i take ant old documents that charges were dropped would he be able to approve me at my interview?

One question is if i go to my interview and they agree to waiver on the 15 year waiver and that i have good moral character now will they do that straight away?Or will i have to wait for washington to agree?
