The process for obtaining a waiver for tourist, student, or work visas is different from waivers for immigrant visas. This type of waiver is typically requested during the visa interview at the consulate or embassy. To qualify for this type of pardon, you need to establish the following three points:
- Demonstrating that the harm to U.S. society would be minimal if you were allowed to enter the United States,
- Addressing the seriousness of any immigration or criminal violations, if they exist, and
- Providing a clear and compelling reason for why you want to re-enter the United States.
When applying for this type of waiver, it's crucial to have specific documentation and a written analysis addressing each of the points mentioned above. At Villar & García, we have extensive experience in handling these types of waiver. You can call us at 915-314-2363 to schedule an evaluation of your case.
