Provisional Waiver

Charlotte immigration Attorney Jorge Pardo can assist you with various immigration matters. The immigration lawyer can provide you assistance with obtaining a provisional waiver process for unlawful presence (I-601A)

Provisional Waiver Process

Beginning March 4, 2013, certain immigrant visa applicants who are spouses, children and parents of U.S. citizens (immediate relatives) can apply for provisional unlawful presence waivers (I-601A) before they leave the United States. The provisional waiver process allows individuals, who only need a waiver of inadmissibility for unlawful presence, to apply for a waiver in the United States and before they depart for their immigrant visa interviews at a U.S. embassy or consulate abroad.

The new process is expected to shorten the time U.S. citizens are separated from their immediate relatives while those family members are obtaining immigrant visas to become lawful permanent residents of the United States.

To be eligible for the provisional waiver process for unlawful presence, you must, among other requirements, be able to demonstrate that refusal of your admission to the United States will cause extreme hardship to your U.S. citizen spouse or parent.

If you are looking for an immigration lawyer in Charlotte to help you with a provisional waiver application or to determine if you are eligible to apply, contact our office at (704) 644-7065 to schedule a consultation.
