I-192 Requirements

Timposted 8 years ago

Thought I'd post this in case anyone found it useful. This was on the wicket window at YYC (Calgary International Airport).

Can you summarize what this may mean?

However, applicants who complete electronic
filing via e-SAFE will need to go to the following ports of entry to
complete the biometrics appointment portion (fingerprints and
photograph) of the waiver process:

• Peace Bridge, New York
• Lewiston Bridge, New York
• Rainbow Bridge, New York
• Peace Arch, Blaine, Washington
• Pacific Highway, Washington
• Point Roberts, Washington
• Toronto Pearson International Airport

The ports of entry listed above are the only locations able to process e-SAFE electronic
filing with CBP biometrics processing for Form I-192 and I-212 applications.

Waiver applications can now be filed online.

U.S. Customs and Border Protection is pleased to announce that the Electronic Secured Adjudication Forms Environment (e-SAFE) will begin accepting electronic applications of Form I-192, Application for Advance Permission to Enter as a Nonimmigrant and Form I-212, Application for Permission to Reapply for Admission into the United States After Deportation or Removal on July 1, 2019 at 9:00 A.M. Eastern Standard Time.

Joe. Take John's advice. On the onset seems simple enough but attention to detail is a must and worth every penny! I have been through this many times ( 3rd renewal) would not consider doing this myself!

@Joe P

You can get a free copy of your pardon from the Parole Board. 1-800-874-2652

If you don't have a copy of your previous waiver, then don't worry about it.

"Where would I get my certified criminal chq from Ont?" Are you referring to court documents?

Your in Calgary, so I would call Michelle for whats needed at that Airport. If you have a pardon, you need to show the previous record because your fingerprints come up "blank."

You can do a second set of fingerprints under the privacy act (Michelle prefers this method) or get a copy of your pardon and put it in the package.

"On the Homeland site there is no mention of this".

I think everyone needs to remember the following. Homeland Security does not care if your waiver is GRANTED. They also will do NO work on your behalf to look up ANYTHING.

If you don't want to look through this site where there are NUMEROUS pages and posts about what to include, do not do your own waiver. Seriously. If you do not have the time to actually READ all the free information that is here, you don't have the time to actually DO the waiver. Pay someone and get a 5 year waiver.

There is no "oh he gave a half assed effort so lets give him 5 years" waivers. You will get a letter asking you for more info, delay the waiver and if the letter never gets to you the file gets closed. Do the research here, and put in the effort and attention to detail. Or just let someone else do that FOR YOU. If you do it yourself and get a 1 year waiver, you saved NOTHING.

Where would I get my certified criminal chq from Ont? I looked online and cannot find an address or phone #.

Also the pic taken at the Calgary airport. It said you must suppy a copy of prevous i 192 waiver and canadian pardon. I recd my pardon back in 92 or so and a i 192 waiver in 93. But it seems the past 25 yrs i have lost them. Do i really need these? On the homeland site there is no mention of this that i see.

Thanks

Hi, All, Wishing you and your loved ones a very Merry Christmas, and a Safe New Year. Enjoy the holidays and your celebrations whatever they may be. Michelle @ FPS Fingerprint Pardon Services.

Michelle replied 5 years ago   #46

I will just place this here.

Christmas is here and I will be in and out of the office. Best way to reach me is:

Cell: 416-843-1371

Feel free to text or call. John Rogers is my real name.

If you need to email me during the holidays:

pardonguy2@gmail.com

Work Email is still pardon.experts@rogers.com but I won't see that unless I am at work.

Life and Waivers don't stop during the holidays, so please don't be shy about calling or texting if you have a question. Questions placed on the Forum I tend to only answer at work, so my responses here will be slow during the holidays.

Everyone please have a safe and happy holiday, and a Merry Christmas!!!

If your court documents are in french do we have to get a translator to translate them into english before they are submitted?

willnope replied 5 years ago   #43

Sometimes we have to add in other things to a waiver packet depending on the case specifics. We don't use the cookie cutter approach since we tailor each waiver case to the individual. I do agree that is kind of do does not matter what order the documents are in. The key is to include relevant material that will help your case.

It is a bit hard to generalise since I do not know your conviction or case specifics. An example is that you could have a Fraud over $5000 conviction in Jan 2018 and are applying for a waiver now....which would be foolish since you will definitely get denied for sure...So the proper order would be a moot point since there are other factors in place here.

K SCOTT replied 5 years ago   #42

My process (ignore the documents that are not applicable)

-i-192
-G325a
-past waiver
-RCMP check
-Court documents
-Personal letter
-proof of Citizenship
-drug test/letter form dr
-proof of employment
-proof of residence
-2 reference letters

After the first 6 though, which are common sense, I don't think it matters TOO much what order the documents are in.

JOHN ROGERS replied 5 years ago   #41

Does anyone know what order your paperwork should go in for Ontario filing ?

Becca replied 5 years ago   #40

#39 Yes in the BC Lower Mainland they are very strict at the borders too. Now we are taking a hit in BC because they have really come hard on PPT (Possession for Purpose of Trafficking) convictions and Sex Assault cases. Half of Vancouver & Surrey clients have PPT convictions and CBP is demanding much more information on both now to include more court file information.

K SCOTT replied 5 years ago   #39

@37, K Scott, Yes, it is the same here in Saskatchewan, application is refused at Border Crossing without Court documents, even photocopies...or if it does get through, a request is sent by Head Office to supply certified copies..

Michelle replied 5 years ago   #38

It is different in BC. Here we cannot get away with not providing court documents for waiver packets. Either CBP at the border will not take the packet or the ARO will send an RFE back and ask for the court files. I don't know if it is because over here we have a lot of drug trafficking, violent crime, organized crime, sex crime and Fraud offences.

K SCOTT replied 5 years ago   #37

The problem isn't so much the waivers. Its the pardons which REQUIRE court documents. The client and we have no choice. You can definitely get away with not getting court documents for waivers in most cases.
