Three Types of Immigration Waivers

The United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) allows the issuance of several types of waivers, each one used for a specific situation. To save you time and energy, allow our immigration law attorneys in Houston hear your case during an initial evaluation and we can determine what waiver is right for you. Our goal from the start is helping you legally enter the United States and remain for as long as need be.

The three main types of immigration waivers are:

• I-601 Waiver of Inadmissibility: Someone seeking entry into the United States using an immigrant visa or adjustment of status but deemed ineligible due to conditions that break qualifications might be able to use an I-601 Waiver. Applicants should be able to prove that a close relative or family member would experience undue hardship if they were not permitted to stay within the U.S. with them.
• I-601A Provisional Waiver to Remain: Immigrants ineligible to remain in the U.S. under typical conditions and qualifications but who do not need to stay in the country to protect or care for a close relative can use an I-601A Provisional Waiver to Remain in the United States. The I-601A allows the applicant to travel back to their country of origin, pass an immigration interview, and return to the U.S., all within a matter of a few days, in most cases.
• I-212 Waiver of Inadmissibility: An immigrant that has been deported, either due to being convicted of criminal offenses or simply due to illegal immigration, faces a difficult task when attempting to reenter. An I-212 Waiver may be the only means of gaining permission to reenter the country.
