Some people seeking an immigration benefit may be found inadmissible or face another legal barrier. Depending on the ground involved and the benefit sought, a waiver may be available. There is no single waiver that fixes every immigration problem.
Different waiver processes have different purposes, requirements, and procedural consequences. Which form, if any, may be appropriate depends on the legal ground, the benefit being sought, the person’s history, and other facts.
The first step is identifying the issue precisely. A refusal notice, prior filings, travel history, and immigration records can be important.
