Requesting waivers of inadmissibility so your immigration application can move forward.
Certain grounds of inadmissibility can block an otherwise strong immigration application. A waiver asks the government to excuse a specific ground so your case can proceed. At Shim Law Group, P.C., we prepare waiver requests carefully so your application has the best chance to move forward.
Waivers are not automatic, and many require showing hardship to a qualifying relative or meeting other detailed standards. A well-documented, well-argued request makes a real difference, and the requirements vary depending on the ground being waived.
Waiver cases turn on preparation and evidence. We build a complete request that clearly makes your case, so a single ground of inadmissibility does not stand in the way of your future.
Our immigration attorneys are ready to discuss your situation confidentially. Contact us today at (718) 878-1177 or fill out our online form for free.

It is a request asking the government to excuse a specific ground that would otherwise make you inadmissible, so your application can move forward. Different grounds require different waivers, and not all can be waived.
Many waivers require showing that a qualifying relative would suffer a certain level of hardship. What qualifies is fact-specific, and we help build the record to support it.
It depends on whether a ground of inadmissibility applies to your case. We review your history and application to identify any issues and whether a waiver is available.
No. Waivers are discretionary and depend on meeting the requirements and presenting a strong case. Careful preparation and documentation give you the best chance of approval.
