Obtaining a Green Card through Provisional Waiver: A Path to Legal Residency

Generally speaking, illegal immigrants who entered the USA illegally may find the path to legal residency particularly difficult. In spite of this, there is still hope; if you entered the country illegally, you may be able to obtain a green card.

Understanding the Provisional Unlawful Presence Waiver:

Still, those who entered the USA illegally and wish to fix their immigration status and become lawful residents of the United States can apply for the Provisional Unlawful Presence Waiver.

Eligibility Criteria:  This waiver is available to immediate relatives of U.S. citizens. This category includes spouses, children, and parents. Furthermore, to be eligible, the immigrant must also be able to prove extreme hardship to the U.S. citizen family member.

The Application Process:

Immediate Relative Petition: Your first step is to file an immediate relative petition with the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS). Once Immigration approves yours petition, you will move forward in the process.

Form I-601A – The Provisional Unlawful Presence Waiver:  Next, after approval of the immediate relative petition, you will need to file Form I-601A, the Provisional Unlawful Presence Waiver and establish extreme hardship to your USA citizen relative.

You must submit supporting documentation demonstrating the extreme hardship your U.S. citizen family member(s) may encounter if you are deported.

USCIS Approval: After approval of the I-601A waiver petition by Immigration, you will gain the freedom to travel back to your home country.

Overseas Interview and Reentry with Green Card:  Finally, after the I-601 A waiver is approved, we will prepare the necessary documents to schedule you for an interview overseas. While overseas, you’ll undergo an interview as part of the green card application process. Upon approval, you’ll promptly reenter the United States with your green card in hand, securing your status as a lawful permanent resident.
