The United States Congress has recently taken up the issue of Immigration Reform.  Some may recall that this was a hot topic several years ago, and was a key agenda item of former President George W. Bush.  However, due to a number of reasons that proposed reform stalled and never became law.

After the elections of 2012, both Democrats and Republicans again turned to the topic of Immigration Reform and it looked like the government was finally going to act.  Both parties recognized that the present immigration system is crippled and needs overhauled.  The question is how to do so?

Update to the Provisional Unlawful Presence Waiver Process (Form I-601A)

9/29/2013

0 Comments

 
USCIS announced an update to the Provisional Unlawful Presence Waiver process beginning March 4, 2013. See their link (http://www.uscis.gov/provisionalwaiver) for information on Eligibility Requirements and Reasons Your Waiver May Be Revoked. 

The aim of this new program is to avoid having immigrant visa applicants who are spouses and sons and daughters of U.S. citizens be separated from their families for months or even years while their waivers are pending.

Now, these family members will obtain their waivers before departing the U.S., will be interviewed abroad, and will then return to their families in the U.S. within a shorter period of time.

While a step in the right direction, navigating through the eligibility requirements, understanding the DOs and DONTs, and completing the application (Form I-601A along with supporting documentation and evidence) still remains fairly complex. If you would like more information on this process, please reach out to us. We would be happy to be #YourImmigrationPartner.
