I-601A Waivers: Children Cannot Petition For Parents
Today we’re going to talk about a frequently asked question on a top waiver: I601a.
Children filing I-601A Waivers for their parents
Can Children file for an I-601A Waiver?
One question that I get asked frequently is: can a child file an I601a waiver for a parent?
I actually had a consultation today with someone who had this situation – they didn’t hire an attorney, they filed the case and got it denied because she was a child filing for the father, wasting a whole year unfortunately. Children are not eligible for the I-601a Waiver because the child-parent relationship is something that does not qualify. If the child is a U.S. Citizen, this doesn’t allow the father to qualify for the I601a Waiver.
However, you can qualify if you’re a spouse or a parent U.S. citizen or Lawful Permanent Resident: in those situations, that relationship could qualify for an I-601a Waiver.
So Brian, what other questions have we been getting? Well you’re talking about the I-601A, client’s get impatient and want to know exactly if we have a way to determine how much time does it take for an I-601A Waivers to get approved.
