Fraud and Willful Misrepresentation Defense
One of the most common grounds of inadmissibility that applicants for visas and green cards face is misrepresentation or fraud. When the government believes that an applicant willfully represented material facts, especially those that directly relate to immigration eligibility, it can result in the denial of the application. A permanent resident who falsely represents oneself as a U.S. citizen can also face removal proceedings.
Exercise your rights by talking with one of our experienced attorneys at Robert Brown LLC. Headquartered in Cleveland, Ohio, and representing individuals and businesses internationally, our lawyers will help you file for a waiver of inadmissibility if the government denies your petition based on misrepresentation or immigration fraud.
Nonimmigrant and Immigrant Waiver Applications
When the government denies an immigration application for fraud of willful misrepresentation, the applicant may submit a waiver and argue for the approval of a visa or green card application. The government will judge visa applicants who file waivers on the risk of harm to society upon admission, the seriousness of the violation of immigration law and the reasoning for the applicant entering the United States.
An applicant who is denied a visa or green card based on fraud of willful misrepresentation may also apply for a waiver if he or she is the immediate relative of a U.S. citizen or lawful permanent resident and can show that the refusal of admission would cause extreme hardship. At Robert Brown LLC, we will help you understand your waiver options.
