No, it is not; it is a refusal, and it is recorded as one, but in most cases it is not a final decision that you are inadmissible. INA 221(g) covers applications that are incomplete or cannot yet be adjudicated.
No. Since a presidential proclamation isn't technically a ground of inadmissibility, Form I-601 doesn't apply here. Instead, these proclamations have their own specific rules. If you need to travel, you’ll have to request an exception, which the consular post handles directly.
Yes. But you must still meet the standard, which requires extreme hardship to a United States citizen or permanent resident spouse or parent.
Not for the unlawful presence waiver or the misrepresentation waiver. Both require extreme hardship to a United States citizen or permanent resident spouse or parent. A son or daughter can qualify as a relative for a limited set of waivers, including the criminal grounds waiver.
Form I-601 costs US$1,050, and Form I-601A costs US$795 as of August 2026. Neither includes a separate biometric services fee. Fees change, so confirm the current amount before filing.
