Waivers
USCIS I-601A, I-601, I-212
We prepare immigration waivers, such as the I-601A provisional waiver, so you can get your green card despite unlawful presence or other obstacles.
Who this is for
- You have a U.S. citizen or permanent resident spouse or parent who would suffer “extreme hardship”
- You have an approved family petition
- You need a waiver for unlawful presence, a prior entry or another ground
Types of waivers
- I-601A (provisional waiver): requested from inside the U.S. before you leave for the consular interview, for the 3- or 10-year unlawful-presence bar.
- I-601: for other grounds of inadmissibility, such as certain criminal records or misrepresentation.
- I-212: permission to reapply after a deportation.
The key: extreme hardship
You must show that your U.S. citizen or resident spouse or parent would suffer extreme hardship if you could not stay. We help you gather medical, financial, family and country-conditions evidence.
