Houston 212(h) Waiver Attorney in Texas

What Is a 212(H) Waiver?

A 212(h) waiver allows the U.S. Attorney General to waive certain offenses that would make one inadmissible. It is typically used as a waiver of inadmissibility after deportation. One may apply for a 212(h) waiver when applying for an adjustment of status, emigrating through consular processing, or entering at a border crossing.

What Crimes May be Waived in a 212(h) Waiver?

The requirements and scenarios for obtaining a 212(h) waiver can be complex and confusing.

The following crimes can be waived under this process, allowing you to re-enter the country after being removed:

  • Crimes considered to be of moral turpitude
  • Multiple convictions that led to imprisonment of five or more years
  • Prostitution
  • Crimes for which immunity from prosecution was involved
  • A one-time offense of simple marijuana possession

Crimes for which you would be ineligible for a 212(h) waiver include murder, attempted murder, and crimes involving torture. Other qualifications for this waiver vary depending on whether you entered the U.S. as a lawful permanent resident or whether you adjusted your status to permanent residency after entering and living here.
