Our client, a citizen of India, had sponsored her father, who was in India. He was denied the immigrant visa, though, because the last time he was in the US, he was found to have worked without authorization and misrepresented information in order to get a visit visa. Attorney Furqan filed an I-601 waiver of inadmissibility for him by arguing that his wife, who was a permanent resident in the US, had a significant medical condition that required his presence in the U.S., and his absence from the U.S. therefore resulted in extreme hardship to her. USCIS accepted these arguments and approved the waiver of inadmissibility.
