If you have been deported or barred from entering the United States, you may be wondering if there is a way for you to return. Fortunately, there is an option available to you: the I-212 Waiver. This waiver can help you gain permission to enter the United States even if you have been deported, excluded, or removed from the country. Keep reading to learn more.
What is an I-212 Waiver?
An I-212 Waiver is a legal document that can help you overcome a previous deportation or removal from the United States.
This waiver can help you gain permission to enter the United States even if you were previously barred from doing so. Immigration officers will grant you an I-212 Waiver if they believe that allowing you to return to the United States would benefit the country.
I-212 Waivers are important because returning unlawfully to the United States without inspection and admission or parole, may make you permanently inadmissible to the United States under INA section 212(a)(9)(C).
Who Can Apply for an I-212 Waiver?
Anyone who has been deported, excluded, or removed from the United States can apply for an I-212 Waiver.
However, it is important to note that this waiver is not a guarantee of admission into the country. You must still meet all the requirements for admission, including having a valid passport and visa.
How to Apply for an I-212 Waiver?
The process for applying for an I-212 Waiver can be complex, so it is important to seek the help of an experienced immigration attorney.
Your attorney can help you gather all the necessary documents and information, such as documentation of your previous deportation or removal and evidence of any ties you have to the United States.
Benefits of Hiring an Immigration Attorney
Hiring an immigration attorney can greatly increase your chances of being granted an I-212 Waiver. Your attorney will be able to guide you through the application process, ensure that your application is complete and accurate, and represent you in any legal proceedings that may arise.
Wrapping It Up
In conclusion, if you have been deported or removed from the United States, an I-212 Waiver may be your best chance at returning to the country.
However, the process for applying for this waiver can be complex and time-consuming, which is why it is important to seek the help of an experienced immigration attorney.
By working with an attorney, you can increase your chances of being granted an I-212 Waiver and being reunited with your loved ones in the United States.
