Abstract: This form is provided by the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) as a means for certain inadmissible nonimmigrant aliens to apply for permission to enter the United States. This form is also used by U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP), to grant temporary permission to certain inadmissible nonimmigrants who wish to enter the United States through a port of entry pursuant to section 212(d)(3) of the INA and 8 CFR 212.4. USCIS also uses this form to address inadmissibility issues for T (Victims of Severe Forms of Trafficking in Persons) and U (Victims of Criminal Activity) petitioners. This is in accordance with 8 CFR 212.16, 8 CFR 212.17 and 8 CFR 214.14.
