About
This is a personal account of a Canadian's pursuit to acquire, successfully receive and utilize a US Waiver (I-194) after learning that he was inadmissible due to a criminal record from more than 20 years ago. This blog should serve as a resource for others who are trying to navigate the waiver process.
My status: Successfully applied for and received my I-194 waiver in November 2006 after a 9 month wait. This 5 year waiver expires in November 2011 and allows me to travel to the US for business and pleasure. I routinely travel to the US on business (1-2 times per month) through many ports of entry. This blog contains my experiences (pre and post application for waiver) and includes resources and links which will hopefully assist you in your pursuit.
In Canada, to Apply for an I-194 waiver you will need to complete the I-192 application (Application for Advance Permission to Enter as a Non-Immigrant). Current filing fee is $545 US. The most recent form can be found here: I-192

You have some great posts here! I've recently started my own blog about pardons, waivers, and file destruction requests, and I ran across your blog, which i find extremely interesting. I would like to write a guest article for your site if I could, about the new pardons legislation just passed last week. If you could get back to me at lesley@pardons.ca that'd be great!
Thanks,
Lesley
Thank you for sharing useful information about immigration blogs. But most of the people prefer green card lottery because it is one of the best way to get green card to USA.
Your site provides good information. I own a "pardon & waiver service", however, my business has a slightly different approach as I have poice background and have worked with CPIC and criminal records extensively. I would like to have my company listed under your reference: Immigration blogs that I follow such as the current other pardon and waiver services. Thanks, michelle@fingerprintpardon.com
