Waivers of Inadmissibility
Waivers
The United States Attorney General can waive certain grounds of inadmissibility. To be granted an immigration waiver, you generally must prove that a parent, child, son/daughter, or spouse who is a United States Citizen or Lawful Permanent Resident will suffer an extreme hardship if you are not allowed to live in the United States. Eligibility for waivers are discretionary and are not available for all types of inadmissibility issues. Make sure to consult an attorney who can evaluate if a waiver is available and if so to determine whether or not you will qualify.
