Waivers

DC Immigration Waivers Attorney

The immigration attorneys at Motion Law have years of experience in handling waiver cases. Many undocumented immigrants are barred from receiving legal status because they entered the country unlawfully without inspection. Unlawful entry and presence in the US are both classified as inadmissible grounds for legalizing status. There are other grounds of inadmissibility such as criminal history, previous removal orders and fraud, amongst others. Motion Law will help to ease your waiver process and set you on the right path to legal status. Our highly qualified immigration attorneys and dedicated legal support team can assist you with waivers, including:

 

Unlawful Presence Waiver

Spouses and children of US citizens and Legal Permanent Residents who have unlawfully entered the country and retain an unlawful presence, may be eligible to apply for an I-601A, "Provisional Unlawful Presence Waiver". Before 2013, an undocumented individual entering the US unlawfully would have to leave the country before applying for an I-601 waiver from their country of origin and then wait for the application to get approved. Waiting times could extend from months to even years while being away from their families in the US. Now, however, individuals who have entered the US without inspection can apply for the new I-601A waiver before having to leave the US. When an I-601A waiver is approved, the individual then needs only to leave the US for their country of origin for a few days in order to sit their immigrant visa interview.

To increase chances of obtaining an I-601A waiver approval, it is important to prove that the removal of the applicant from the US will cause extreme hardship to the US citizen or Legal Permanent Resident spouse or parent. This requires an extensive list of evidence. Motion Law will guide you through every step in the process and help you to gather all the evidence needed. We know how stressful these processes can be for you and your family. Our mission is to successfully secure your waiver for you.

Waiver of Grounds of Inadmissibility

You may have different grounds of inadmissibility other than unlawful presence. Whether your grounds of inadmissibility are in relation to criminal history, a prior removal order, fraud or misrepresentation, or even a false claim to citizenship, our team of expert immigration attorneys are here to help you. We know how difficult the waivers process can be to understand, so let Motion Law ease your concerns.

Permission to Reapply for Admission into the United States

If you are seeking to apply for permission to re-apply for admission into the US after being ordered deported or removed, you could be eligible to apply for a waiver after being ordered removed. This is a very complicated process that needs the help of an expert immigration attorney. Motion Law's experienced immigration attorneys possess the knowledge and skills to help you with complex waiver cases.
