Advice Ref: US 5 year Ban about to expire this year
 

Hello everyone!

I am writing to seek some guidance.. My then boyfriend now husband was
banned from the US for 5 years. Since then, I have moved to Canada, we
married and we are now living happily in Canada. However, I
occasionally go back home and since his 5 year ban expires this coming
September and I was wondering what is it that we must do to approach
this now since we are now married and the 5 year ban is almost
finished.

Thanks for your assistance in advance,

San :)

Here some background on his ban:

He was found inadmissible to the US under provissions of section 212(a)
under provisions of section 237. In accordance with provisions of
section 212(a)(9). He is prohibited from entering, attempting to enter
or being in the US:

for a period of 5 years from the date of his departure from the US as a
consequence of him having been found inadmissible as an arriving alien
in proceedings under section 235(b)(1) or 240 of the Act.

Apply for a visa.

Getting the visa will be one thing, getting past the Rottweilers at Immigration will be another..

I assumed that the person with the 5yr bar was Canadian. They rarely issue a tourist visa to a Canadian since they are exempt.

Yes he is Canadian. So.. I am not sure what the procedure would
be...maybe best to call..
