what to do after 10 year bar has expired. The inadmissibility was under sec. 212(a)(9)(B)(v) and 212 (h). CIMT & for living in the US more than 1 year

Any violation under the 10 year bar for being in the United States illegally under section 212(a)(9)(B) will expire at the end of 10 years. However, a bar for a crime involving moral turpitude does not expire in most cases and a waiver will most likely have to be applied for. I note that you have cited the waiver sections of the Immigration and Nationality Act and those were probably notated on the denial decision. There is a waiver for most prostitution offenses that occurred more than 15 years ago if a person has been rehabilitated and admission of such a person would not be contrary to the national welfare, safety, or security of the United States. Otherwise a waiver would have to be applied for on the basis of extreme hardship to a US citizen or lawful permanent resident spouse, parent, son or daughter.
