Understanding I-212s for Inadmissibility Related to Prior Removal Orders and the Permanent Bar

This advisory seeks to clarify when, where, and how to file an I-212. It also discusses certain special circumstances such as conditional I-212s, nunc pro tunc I-212s, and how a grant to TPS or advance parole may affect the need for an I-212.
