Form I-212: Application for Permission to Reapply for Admission Into the United States After Deportation or Removal
What is the Purpose of this Form?
Form I-212 is for a particular inadmissible immigrant and nonimmigrant population that is seeking permission to reapply for admission into the United States (also known as "consent to reapply") after they have been excluded, deported, or removed from the United States or had been unlawfully present in the United States for an aggregate period of more than 1 year, and subsequently entered or attempted to reenter the United States without being admitted.
Who Should File this Form?
There are three pertinent sections in the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA) that address the above referenced nonimmigrant and his/her need to obtain consent to reapply in advance of applying for admission into the United States. The three noted sections are §212(a)(9)(A), §212(a)(9)(C) and §276. If any of the noted sections apply to you and you are not required to obtain a visa to enter the United States as a non-immigrant, you may file Form I-212 at a U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP)-designated port of entry or a CBP-designated preclearance office. The Form I-212 and accompanying documents must be filed in advance of travel.
If you require consent to reapply and are inadmissible to the United States because of additional reasons (for example, having; a communicable disease, criminal record for crimes involving moral turpitude, or a violation of any controlled substance law), you may also have to file a Form I-192 in conjunction with a Form I-212. Both Forms I-212 and I-192 may be downloaded at the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services Forms website.
