Immigration Waiver Attorneys in New York City

What Is Inadmissibility?

Inadmissibility (formerly known as “excludability”) occurs when a prospective immigrant qualifies for a temporary visa or other immigration-related benefit but is denied for some other reason.

These reasons can include:

  • Financial status
  • Criminal background
  • Presence of communicable diseases or mental disorders
  • Connections to terrorist organizations, etc.

Call (212) 969-8570 or contact our firm online today to set up your free consultation with our experienced NYC immigration waiver lawyers.


Inadmissibility can also occur when an immigrant has:

  • Overstayed their visa
  • Entered illegally
  • Otherwise violated the terms of a previously granted legal immigration status

Is Inadmissibility Permanent?

Inadmissibility is permanent if an immigrant is found to have re-entered the country after being previously deported. You may be able to obtain a waiver of inadmissibility, which essentially forgives one or more factors that would normally have prevented you from staying in the United States or acquiring lawful status.

Obtaining a waiver is a challenging task, which is why hiring our team is critical for your future. Whether you are seeking to qualify for a higher immigration status or obtain a visa for the first time, you may confront issues related to your admissibility.

What Happens if You Are Deemed Inadmissible?

If deemed inadmissible, you could be:

  • Denied entry into the country
  • Prevented from moving to a more favorable immigration status
  • Or even placed into a removal proceeding

When Does Admissibility Matter?

Admissibility is not only relevant when you are being considered for first-time entry into the United States.

U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) will consider your admissibility at every phase of the immigration process in which you are requesting a new or different status (e.g. moving from refugee status to permanent residence).

This is important because, while you may be admissible for a temporary travel visa, you may be considered inadmissible for permanent residence for one reason or another.

How To Appeal Inadmissibility

You may be able to challenge a finding of inadmissibility if you can demonstrate that you have rectified the issues in question or that it is possible to do so.

For example, if you are deemed inadmissible based on criminal charges but were later acquitted, this may be a game-changer in your case.

Similarly, if you are deemed inadmissible due to financial difficulties that make you appear likely to become a ward of the state, evidence that family members within the United States are willing to support you may be useful in changing the court’s mind.
