I'm not eligible for 245i and it's 50/50 if I'll be able to get the waiver because I may not to be able to prove hardship for my elderly mother even though she lives with me and is 100% emotionally, physically and financially dependent on me for everything and will be will be royally screwed if i'm denied re-entry. It is what is.
