I-601A Waiver

I-601A Waiver

Applying For Provisional Stateside Waiver I-601A
The I-601A waiver makes it possible for the unlawfully present relatives of U.S. citizens to apply for the waiver while still in the U.S. The immigrant relative may wait in the United States while USCIS makes a decision on his/her I-601A waiver. Once the waiver is approved, the immigrant is pre-approved to return to the United States. Once they are ready to proceed to the immigrant visa interview portion of the process and if they are not considered inadmissible to the U.S. for any other reasons, they can travel abroad to the U.S. consulate in their country of origin without risking not being able to reunite with their family in the U.S.

What You Should Know About I-601A Provisional Immigration Waivers
On March 4, 2013, the provisional unlawful presence waiver (I-601A) was introduced. Prior to that only waiver I-601 was available. I-601 waiver was decided abroad when the immigrant returns back to his/her home country to attend the visa interview at the consulate. As a result, immediate relatives (spouses, children, & parents) who were unlawfully present in the U.S. and ineligible to adjust their status in the U.S. risked not being able to return to the U.S. if their waiver was denied at the consulate.
