When a person is declared inadmissible to the United States, this means they are prohibited from adjusting their status, from obtaining an immigrant visa, and from coming into the U.S. for any reason. Fortunately, I-601 and I-601A Waivers are available to allow non-citizens to live and work in the U.S. or obtain green cards despite such grounds. Additionally, I-212 Waivers are available for those who have already been deported for a specific time period and want to return to the U.S. before that time is up.

The Immigration and Nationality Act (INA) sets forth specific grounds for which a person may be inadmissible to the United States, meaning they are prohibited from coming into the country for any reason. Inadmissibility can affect one’s ability to get a green card and to live and work in the U.S.
A person may be inadmissible to the United States based on one or more of several grounds:
USCIS also lists “miscellaneous grounds of inadmissibility” that include practicing polygamists, former U.S. citizens who renounced citizenship for tax purposes, smugglers, student visa abusers, persons who entered the country illegally, and more.
Immigration waivers are discretionary, and this means that the government is not required to approve applications. They are handled on a case by case basis, and this makes it all the more important for your attorney to accurately present all evidence that supports your waiver to pursue a favorable outcome. Our Malden immigration waiver lawyers are experienced and know how to develop strong cases for our clients, and we are resolved to seek the best result we can for every client.
