well waivers exist for people whose
personal or immigration histories mean
that they would otherwise be deemed
inadmissible to the United States so you
couldn’t get a visa to come in or if
you’re in the United States trying to
apply for a green card without the
waiver you wouldn’t be able to do that
so I would say that the most common
types of waivers that we encounter in
our office are for people who have been
deemed to have engaged in material fraud
or misrepresentation we also deal with
waivers for people that have certain
types of criminal histories both of
those waivers rely on demonstrating to
the appropriate decision maker that you
have certain relatives in the United
States that will experience extreme
hardship if you’re unable to complete
the immigration process we also deal
with waivers for unlawful presence we
deal with waivers related to individuals
who have had J-1 visas in the past two
Who are ineligible to get H-1B visas L
visas or green cards because of
something called the two-year home
residency requirement there really
aren’t any waiver types that we wouldn’t
be able to assist folks in
um in pursuing now not everyone
qualifies for a waiver but it’s
important to consult with a qualified
immigration attorney if you’ve been told
that you need a waiver to make sure that
you qualify and to find the best
possible path forward in a case that is
otherwise stalled because of of a
personal history or a criminal history
