“Jack-in-the-Boxed” at Your Visa Interview? Why are Consular Officers Now Springing on Visa Applicants Permanent Bars Out of Nowhere?

Published on 11.03.2025

Case Studies

The consul permanently barred G, a very successful businessman, from the United States under Section 212(a)(6)(C)(i). But G did not understand why. And after conducting a detailed consultation and reviewing his 25-year visa history, it was also not clear to us. So we requested the consulate and the Department of State to clarify the underlying factual basis for the decision. After two months, the Department of State re-opened and re-examined the decision. Not seeing a legal basis for the entry of the 6Ci finding, it rescinded the 6Ci inadmissibility. Two months later, G applied for and received a new B visitor visa.
