How Does the Adam Walsh Act Impact Immigration?
You've cleaned up your life after committing a criminal offense involving a minor. But you can’t bring your fiancé or other family members to the US to live as lawful permanent residents without an Adam Walsh waiver. This 2006 law prohibits US citizens and green card holders convicted of specific offenses against minors from obtaining permission for their relatives to immigrate to the US. So, what can you do if you have a conviction on your record? While our experienced immigration attorneys can’t promise a positive outcome, we do have a successful record in obtaining Adam Walsh waivers for our clients. Take the first step to learn if we can help. Make an appointment with one of our immigration attorneys today.
What Are My Chances of Obtaining a Waiver?
We won’t mislead you. Getting an Adam Walsh waiver is quite a challenge. The critical factor is showing that you pose no risk to the family members you want to bring into the country. For that reason, USCIS officers usually err on the side of caution. Our attorneys research your case carefully, working hand in hand with mental health and other professionals to present your best case. Although we can’t guarantee how the USCIS will rule, we do have a solid record of obtaining positive results. To learn more, get in touch with one of our immigration attorneys today.
