Waivers of Inadmissibility

When looking to gain lawful permanent residence to the United States, or a nonimmigrant visa to come to the United States temporarily, sometimes situations can arise when a person who otherwise qualifies for the visa, is declared inadmissible for an entirely different reason. This finding is usually made by either the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services, or one of the many U.S. Embassies or Consulates abroad. This kind of finding can prevent that individual from being granted lawful permanent residence or a temporary, nonimmigrant visa, and legal entry into the United States. 

An individual can be declared inadmissible for a number of different reasons, such illegal presence in the United States, false claiming to be a U.S. citizen to an immigration officer or other government official, using false documents, misrepresenting a material fact to gain entry into the United States, using illegal substances, a prior deportation or voluntary departure order, and many others. A lot of times these individuals who have been declared inadmissible are eligible to file a waiver application, such as an I-601(a), an I-601, or an I-212, to overcome these grounds of inadmissibility.
