What happens after Form I-212 is approved?
If the I-212 waiver application is approved, the foreign national can reschedule an interview with the U.S. consulate/embassy abroad and obtain a visa. In approximately ONE (1) to THREE (3) months after arriving to the U.S., the foreign national will receive his/her Permanent Resident Card (“Green Card”).
Do you need a qualifying relative for an I-212?
Unlike an I-601 waiver, the 212 waiver does not require a qualifying relative or proof of extreme hardship. Your application needs to be submitted either at the consulate where the visa will be issued or at the USCIS office that has jurisdiction over the location of the original removal.
