What Is An Inadmissibility Waiver?
If an immigration officer has informed you that you are inadmissible to the United States, it's important to know that there are still various options available to you. At Caballero & Fernandez de Avila, P.A., we are dedicated to working closely with both you and your family to navigate the complex process of filing for an inadmissibility waiver. Our team will assist you in understanding the various types of hardships that your permanent U.S. resident or citizen family member might face if you are not permitted to live in the United States.
This waiver, commonly referred to as a “hardship waiver,” is a crucial aspect of U.S. immigration law. It allows immigration authorities to consider the emotional, physical, and financial difficulties your family could experience as a direct result of your absence. We are here to help you present a compelling case that emphasizes these hardships to increase your chances of a favorable outcome. With our support, you can feel more confident in navigating this challenging situation.

I-601 and 1-601A Hardship Waivers
If your inadmissibility is due to unlawful presence in the United States, fraud or misrepresentation, or crimes that involve moral turpitude, it will be essential for you to apply for an I-601 or I-601A hardship waiver. The waiver process can be particularly intricate and overwhelming, especially considering that these cases directly relate to violations of U.S. law. To successfully navigate this process, you must demonstrate not only the significant hardship that your family member would endure as a result of your inadmissibility but also present a compelling and persuasive reason for the U.S. government to offer forgiveness for the actions that led to your current situation. The level of hardship that you must prove can range from extreme hardship to what is termed “extraordinary and extremely unusual,” and it varies depending on the unique circumstances of your case.
At Caballero & Fernandez de Avila, P.A., we are dedicated to working closely with our clients to navigate these complex challenges and pursue the best possible outcome for their cases. Do not hesitate to reach out to us today to schedule a consultation and learn how we can assist you in this critical matter.
J-1 Inadmissibility Waivers
If you have been living in the U.S. on a J-1 visa—as a researcher, teacher, student, cultural exchange participant, au pair, government consultant, or through another program—you may be required to return to your home country for two years before becoming eligible for a green card. However, if you have close family members who are U.S. citizens or lawful permanent residents and need you to remain in the United States, you can apply for a J-1 inadmissibility waiver.
While the standard for approval is considered “exceptional,” the team at Caballero & Fernandez de Avila, P.A. will carefully review your situation to determine if your family’s circumstances meet this threshold. If they do, we will work diligently to prepare a strong case to support your waiver application. Contact our legal team today to discuss your options.
