Great, I will move forward with the FOI request. However, would you classify them filing it as removal as something by accident, or something permitted under the law?

Anyone else have any experience dealing with deportation versus APPLICATION FOR ADMISSION WITHDRAWN. My understanding is a removal, regardless of fault or intention, carries a penalty of five years. However, if her passport says application for admission withdrawn, could the embassy be mistaken and filing the waiver is an incorrect request?

Her B2 was voided when she overstayed.
Sounds like they filed it as a removal.
Maybe a FOI request?

Hello all,
I just finished the entire K1 process from petition to final interview. Here is the summary:
10/26/2009
I-129F submitted and received.
5/26/2010
I-129F petition for fiancé approved.
05/26/10-10/26/2010
Case forwarded on to national visa center, and subsequently on to local US Consulate in Managua, Nicaragua.
10/26/2010
Fiancé has interview with US Consulate for issuance of K1 visa. Visa approved and fiancé instructed can pick up documents next Monday, 11/1/2010.
Documents submitted during interview:
I-134, DS-156, DS156K, copy of 2009 tax return, supporting evidence of relationship (photos, receipts, wire transfers, letter on sponsor’s behalf).
10/27/2010
Fiancé receives phone call from US Consulate in Managua requesting document listing all departure dates from Nicaragua.
10/28/2010
Fiancé brings requested document, and after long wait, US Consulate states application is now pending and no longer approved. Consulate states fiancé needs to submit I-212, Application for Permission to Reapply for Admission into the United States After Deportation or Removal.
We learned that fiancé, while on a B1/B2 Visa, attended high school in Iowa from 2003-2005. On a subsequent flight on the B1/B2 visa, three years later in 2008, fiancé is sent on nice flight back and made to sign a I-275, as a result of attending high school on a B1/B2 visa. Passport stamped with: WD- APPLICATION FOR ADMISSION WITHDRAWN. HOU(officer) 0924 (date) 10/24/08.
Consulate then suspends K-1 visa application and says she needs to fill out and submit a I-212, Application for Permission to Reapply for Admission into the United States After Deportation or Removal. However, her passport, and what she was told my immigration is contrary: WD- APPLICATION FOR ADMISSION WITHDRAWN. HOU(officer)0924 (date) 10/24/08.
My understanding is she wasn't barred the five years because she wasn't deported but voluntarily removed, and therefore should have to fill out the I-212 waiver. If she was deported, then filling out the I-212 waiver would make sense. What I read is local consulate where her original visa was issued should have a copy of the I-212, but they are clueless and stating I-212 is required.
Please, any advice is recommended before visiting an immigration attorney. Thanks!

Thanks for the response, and good question. Processing time for this waiver I-212 is 18 months, and from what I read, has little chance of being approved. As a result, I want to be sure this is something I need to do and not an error on the consulate's fault.
Thanks for your detailed response as well. Everything you note makes sense, and helps point me in the right direction. At this time, I'll speak with an immigration attorney. Thanks everyone.
