Provisional Waivers Lawyer in Coppell

Reducing the Time Families Are Separated

Under the Obama Administration, the immigration process for many immigrants married to U.S. citizens and permanent residents changed. This enabled certain immigrant certain visa applicants who are qualified immediate relatives of U.S. citizens and lawful permanent residents to apply for a provisional unlawful presence waiver before leaving the U.S. reducing the time they have to spend away from their families. At Christensen Immigration Attorneys, our attorneys in Coppell assists clients with this process and we are very good at it.

Changes to the Provisional Waiver Process

Under the old process, immediate relatives were unable to apply for a waiver until after an interview for an immigrant visa abroad and a Department of State consular officer had determined they were inadmissible to the U.S. The waiver could not be submitted until after the interview and people often waited months, or even years, for a decision. In the meantime, the relative was required to remain outside of the country and away from the family.

The new process covers relatives of U.S. citizens and residents, including:

Spouses
Children
Parents

It allows qualified people to apply for a provisional waiver before leaving the country for an immigrant visa interview abroad. This process has shortened the time that U.S. citizens and residents are separated from family while waiting to obtain immigrant visas.

Bringing Families Together

If you are married to a citizen or permanent resident of the United States, this is a good time to start the immigration process.
