About Waivers

"Waivers are not just forms to fill out and turn into the immigration officer. They are extensive substantive documents that explain your family's unique hardship if you are denied your visa. Let us handle your pardon so that you can be reunited with your family." ∙ Gloria Cardenas Conn

Some visa and green card applicants are deemed "inadmissible" and are therefore not allowed to legally enter the United States or to adjust their status to permanent residents. Some of the reasons for inadmissibility include:

  • Health-related inadmissibility: Communicable diseases, physical or mental disorders that could cause danger to self or others, lack of vaccination, and classification as a drug abuser or addict can all lead to inadmissibility.
  • Criminal-related inadmissibility: Crimes of moral turpitude, certain controlled substance-related crimes, drug trafficking, prostitution, human trafficking and certain multiple convictions can result in an applicant being inadmissible.
  • Security-related inadmissibility: If the government believes an applicant is trying to get into the country to commit espionage, terrorism, overthrow the government or other illegal activities, the applicant could be inadmissible.
  • Public charge inadmissibility: If there is good reason to believe that an applicant will become a public charge — based on age, health and other factors — that applicant could be inadmissible.
  • Immigration law violation inadmissibility: If someone has entered the country illegally or stayed beyond a visa's time limit, it could be grounds for inadmissibility.

If your visa petition has been denied, contact us. We will fight for your immigration goals by filing a petition for waiver and appealing your case.

Many of these inadmissibility clauses have exceptions and allow for the possibility of waivers, wherein U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services can waive the inadmissibility status for individual cases.

Our Salt Lake City immigration waiver attorneys have been through this process before. Like trusted family, we will help you through every step of the process. We can help you file:

  • I-212 Application for Permission to Reapply for Admission into the U.S. after Deportation or Removal: This is for those who were removed or deported, who departed during deportation proceedings or who tried to enter the U.S. without papers.
  • I-601 Application for Waiver of Ground of Inadmissibility: This is for foreign nationals seeking permission to enter the U.S. on a visa or residents seeking to adjust status. This form requests the waiver of the grounds of inadmissibility

The entire immigration and naturalization processes are extremely complicated and emotionally difficult. We want to treat you like family, by helping you through every phase of the waiver process.
