The US embassy in Mumbai banned me in 2015 for giving wrong information about my marriage. I want to know how many years I'm banned for. How can I know?

4You could ask them, perhaps. What exactly did they say to lead you to believe that you were banned? – phoog Aug 06 '18 at 17:14

2You are banned forever. There are waivers available but those are very hard to come by. What kind of visa did you apply for? – Aug 06 '18 at 18:27

7@DanNeely Marriage fraud which involves an actual albeit fraudulent marriage between a citizen and noncitizen is totally different from a non immigrant lying about his/her marital status on visa forms. – Augustine of Hippo Aug 06 '18 at 21:05

2@TheZealot that is discussed in (a)(6)(c)(I) about halfway down. – Harper - Reinstate Monica Aug 06 '18 at 23:24

If you were banned for giving wrong information per your own words, then it is a ban for misrepresentation or fraud. It makes you permanently inadmissible and you must apply for a waiver for the inadmissibility to be waived.
Waivers for fraud are very very difficult to get.
