*Permission to Reenter, Consulate Processing and Waiver of the 3/10 year bar * There are three packages that must be completed. The Consulate Processing, the Permission to Reenter and the Waiver of Inadmissibility. A Consulate Processing package needs to be done for the Family Petition. This is a petition that will allow your loved one to come to the U.S. Our firm can prepare the Consulate Processing package which goes through U.S. Immigration, the National Visa Center and then the Consulate, so it goes smoothly and correctly. A Waiver of Inadmissibility will have to be obtained. This is a package that will include a legal brief, forms, documents, exhibits and declarations. My firm can prepare the entire waiver, and attach all of the necessary documents. It will take several months for the decision, and if done correctly, there is a good chance of an approval. The Waiver essentially makes the ground of ineligibility (i.e., the 3/10 year bar) disappear so that the you will be allowed entry into the U.S. You will also need to have a Permission to Reenter done so that the deportation bar will be lifted. This is a complete package that goes to the District Director to allow entry into the U.S. many years prior to when the deportation order would allow.

Will have to leave out of state to do the 10 year punishment or can i ask for forgiveness in the u.s without leaving

Answered by attorney Alan Lee

There is the possibility with DACA beneficiaries that you may solve the problem of illegal entry through applying for and obtaining an advance parole to leave the country for emergent, business, or schooling reasons. Upon return, you may be able to put in an application for adjustment of status along with a waiver of the 10 year bar for having been in the US illegally for over one year. Another alternative is the Obama administration program that allows someone in your situation who is married to a US citizen to apply for the I-601A program under which the application for waiver can be submitted in the US following I-130 petition for alien relative approval. Under the program, you would be allowed to stay in the country during the time that the waiver application is adjudicated. If approved, you would finish your green card case by traveling to the American consulate or embassy in your home country for a regular immigrant visa interview.
