Our client was a Jordan national with Palestinian citizenship. Client was a J-1 foreign medical graduate subject to 212(e) 2-year foreign residency requirement. Client was married to a U.S. citizen and they had a child together. The child was born with Microcephaly, so Attorney Furqan got client’s J-1 hardship waiver approved, so that client could adjust to a legal permanent resident without having to leave the country for 2 years.
