We are pleased to announce the approval of a Provisional Unlawful Presence Waiver (Form I-601A) for one of our clients. This success is the result of a compassionate and determined approach to complex immigration cases. Our client’s case was based on a humanitarian reinstatement of a previously approved I-130 petition, which had been revoked following the unfortunate passing of her husband, who was a Lawful Permanent Resident (LPR).
Despite the loss, Barrera Legal Group successfully advocated for the reinstatement of the I-130 petition under INA 205(l), which allows for certain immigration benefits to continue for surviving relatives of deceased petitioners when compelling humanitarian factors are present. This reinstatement enabled our client to proceed with her immigration journey, culminating in the approval of her I-601A waiver, a critical step in obtaining her lawful permanent residency.
This case highlights the unique provisions of humanitarian reinstatement, which USCIS considers in specific circumstances, recognizing the hardships that families face when a primary sponsor passes away.
At Barrera Legal Group, we are dedicated to providing compassionate and knowledgeable legal support to our clients, even under the most challenging circumstances. If you or a loved one is facing obstacles in your immigration journey, contact us to learn how we can help.
