Some people may need to apply for a wavier in order to ask forgiveness for prior grounds of inadmissibility, such as having lived in the U.S. without documentation or criminal history. Generally, waivers look at hardship to a U.S. citizen or LPR family member; some waivers allow consideration of hardship to the immigrant him- or herself. To determine whether you or a family member may be eligible for a waiver, we would be happy to discuss the law as it applies to your case during a consultation.

Examples of hardship waivers include:

• I-601A Provisional Unlawful Presence Waiver

• I-601 Waiver for Grounds of Inadmissibility

• I-212 Application for Permission to Reapply for Admission in the U.S. after Removal
