    (a) General. A visa shall not be issued to an alien who at any time 
knowingly has encouraged, induced, assisted, abetted, or aided any other 
alien to enter or to try to enter the United States in violation of law.
    (b) Waiver of ineligibility--INA 212(d)(11). If an immigrant 
applicant is ineligible under INA 212(a)(6)(E) but is qualified to seek 
the benefits of INA 212(d)(11), the consular officer shall inform the 
alien of the procedure for applying to INS for relief under that 
provision of law. A visa may not be issued to the alien until the 
consular officer has received notification from INS of the approval of 
the alien's application under INA 212(d)(11).
