on reflection , I don’t think I said enough . In fact I said very little about about my regrets and my rehabilitation

I’ve now taken advice from an immigration lawyer who is going to
advise me going forward and hopefully help out together another application . Thank you for all your reply’s

Don't believe you have hit the 15 year mark yet as you gave the date of caution as 15/10/2009 - so 15 year mark is still more than a month away.

My mistake it was 10/09

does it make any difference? I mean does it make any difference if it’s 14 or 15 years ?

Out of curiosity, is there more to the story? Growing farms of plants can be detectable by satellite, however, just one plant? How on earth did the police get involved?

It would make a difference for immigrant waivers from what I read, but don't think so for non-immigrant but Mr. F would know better

The 212(d)(3) waiver is for issuance of a non-immigrant visa. Other than national security, it can be granted for any non-immigrant category. Due to the context where these waivers are adjudicated, there is but one published case discussing the waiver, Matter of Hranka from 1978.

212(d)(3) has no express time frame whatsoever.

It shows you (may) have a broad disregard for the laws of the land, which isn't a good look when applying for a visa.

I would try again, the reason I have to have a waiver is due to possession, and supply of cannabis, went to court and was convicted, fined and community service, which is clearly much worse a mistake than your mistake. It was 29 years ago now, but applied for my first visa in 2006 just 11 years after the offence, so far I have not been denied the waiver. I can't tell you what is different in your case, but good luck
