I-601A Stateside Provisional Unlawful Presence Waiver
This waiver is available to certain relatives of U.S. citizens and U.S. greencard-holders who are ineligible for adjustment of status due to unlawful presence in the United States, allowing them to apply for a provisional waiver before departing for consular processing of their immigrant visa application.
I-601 Inadmissibility / Fraud Waiver
The I-601 waiver is sought by individuals who are deemed inadmissible to the United States due to various reasons, including fraud or misrepresentation, criminal history, or health-related issues, allowing them to seek an exception from their inadmissibility and pursue lawful admission or immigration benefits.
J-1 Visa Two-Year Residency Requirement Waiver
Our law firm effectively achieves waiver of the two-year home residency requirement for J-1 visa holders by:
- securing a “No Objection” Statement from their home country government;
- proving there will be “exceptional hardship” to the J-1 visa holder’s U.S. citizen or U.S. lawful permanent resident spouse or child;
- proving that, upon return to their home country, the J-1 visa holder will be persecuted on the basis of race, religion, political opinion/affiliation and/or membership in a particular social group; or
- securing an interested government agency (IGA) / Conrad State 30 waiver.
Section 245(i) Adjustment of Status (the “LIFE Act”)
Allows certain individuals in the United States to apply for U.S. lawful permanent resident status without leaving the country, even if they entered unlawfully or violated their nonimmigrant status.
Section 245(k) Adjustment of Status
Provides certain individuals with the opportunity to adjust their immigration status to that of a U.S. lawful permanent resident despite certain employment-related violations or changes. This provision allows eligible individuals to apply for adjustment of status without being penalized for specific employment-related issues, enabling them to pursue U.S. lawful permanent residency within the United States.
