Your client is inadmissible for crimes. Now what do you do? In many cases, you can at least apply to waive the offense under INA §212(h). This webinar will cover what can be waived under § 212(h), who can apply for a waiver, when it can be filed, the standards for granting it, and when different rules apply to some permanent residents. We will discuss how § 212(h) can be used to prevent disaster when the client cannot apply for LPR or non-LPR cancellation, as well as the limits the BIA is placing on use of the waiver. This is an intermediate-level webinar that assumes some familiarity with inadmissibility for crimes and waivers in general.
