  • This is an adjustment of status serie! On this video, Jacqueline Watson and Jennifer Walker Gates go over the "waive-through" entries and how the matter of Areguillin can help immigrants to adjust their status.
    Many immigrants in the United States think they entered “illegally” because they came in without a visa. However, in a case called Matter of Areguillin, the Board of Immigration Appeals ruled that a person who enters after being allowed to pass through an immigration checkpoint - even if they don’t have a visa - actually entered lawfully, or “with inspection.”
    These types of entries are known as “waive-through” entries, and they occur most often for individuals who enter as children, for example, in the back of a car, or even adults who enter as passengers on a bus. So long as the individual does not lie to immigration agents or falsely state that they are a U.S. citizen, and the agent just lets them pass through the checkpoint, these waive-throughs are legal entries, and can sometimes lead to an adjustment of status, or residency within the United States.

    Can a "waive through" replace "entered without Inspection" answer on an initial I-918 form . Page 3 Part 2. Item 9.d.

      Hello,
      In our experience, listing “waive through” as the manner of entry is a good idea so long as the petitioner is prepared to provide evidence such as sworn witness statements. Without evidence, it can become tough to make the case and is really a strategic decision about whether or not to just file a waiver with the U visa or not.
