A waiver of inadmissibility is a legal request that asks U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), the Department of State, or U.S. Customs and Border Protection to overlook certain immigration violations or other grounds that would normally prevent an individual from being admitted to the United States or from obtaining an immigration benefit such as a visa, green card, or adjustment of status.

Common Grounds for Inadmissibility

• Previous immigration violations, including unlawful presence or deportation
• Certain criminal convictions
• Fraud or misrepresentation
• Health-related issues
• Security or public safety concerns

If a waiver is granted, the applicant may proceed with their immigration application despite the inadmissibility issue.

Who Is Eligible for a Waiver?

Waiver eligibility depends on several factors, including:

• Whether a waiver is available for the specific ground of inadmissibility
• The type of immigration benefit being sought (e.g., green card, nonimmigrant visa)
• Whether the applicant has a qualifying relative, such as a U.S. citizen or lawful permanent resident spouse or parent, who would suffer extreme hardship if the waiver is denied
• Whether the applicant has maintained good moral character and meets all other statutory and regulatory requirements

Certain waivers are also available for humanitarian cases involving refugees, asylees, and victims of trafficking or certain crimes.
