There are rare exceptions, but whether you file a waiver, or a waiver AND an I-212 you simply get a waiver in return. That's why I tell clients to wait. Its an extra $930USD for the exact same waiver.

Sorry, that was meant for the response below

@Samuel8911
I know, they never going to catch up. Always an excuse and gotten worse. They need to hire more officers.
@Hot Shot, there has to eventually be some fluctuation in the delays. Officially, it is supposed to take up to 6 months. I'm curious as to why it has been exactly 8 months.
@Hot shot, I sat right up at that too
I'm Sept 28th so I was like whatttt. But reality settled in. Lol

@Oliver They barely do ANY waivers this way. So now 33.3% of the waivers you have done this way have cost you more money. They probably HATE that you do it this way. So stop. Also, that's a steep price AND its slower. Your way now officially sucks. Have fun waiting now for the replacement.

@Oliver This is why using eSAFE is WAY better. I get clients who "miss" the email but we still have always been able to get a copy for free. Not a single client has had to pay for a replacement since we started using eSAFE.

5 year waiver, first time applying, did it myself. Possession of a schedule I narcotic in 1999 while crossing the border, no criminal record/charges.

I went to CBP border crossing at the Peace Arch on April 26th to inquire about parole since I needed to be in the US on Monday the 29th. Options were not good but we could see on their side that the file had been opened for the very first time since August at 830AM that day (Friday, April 26th) and an event was created at 430PM the same day (we couldn't see what the event was). They recommended I try for parole the next day. I went to another CBP crossing on the 28th to apply for parole and the supervisor at Pacific Crossing was beyond abusive but the officers were kind. An email request to the ARO for status request on Monday the 29th generated the exact same email response as usual (even though it really was in progress). Less than an hour later the waiver was approved. So at least in this case, it didn't take them long to look at the file - it just takes 8+ months to get to the file.
