Waiver Applications

A waiver is an application to USCIS to get permission to receive an immigration benefit when the applicant may be disqualified from obtaining that benefit due to his or her health history, immigration history, criminal record, or other factors. Waiver applications are labor intensive and may be critical to the outcome of your immigration case.
