Many waiver applications are denied for one critical reason—failing to prove extreme hardship the right way. It’s not just about showing hardship, but showing it to the correct person under immigration law.
Join Lilly Legal on April 28, 2026, at 7:00 PM EST as Atty. Lilian Chukwurah explains the key requirements for I-601 and I-601A extreme hardship waivers. She clarifies a common misunderstanding: the hardship must be proven for the qualifying relative—a U.S. citizen or lawful permanent resident spouse or parent—not the immigrant applicant.
In this Immigration Tip, Atty. Chukwurah breaks down the three major evidence categories that can strengthen your waiver case. Medical and psychological evidence must clearly document the qualifying relative’s condition and how separation would worsen it. Financial evidence should demonstrate real hardship, including loss of income and inability to meet basic needs. Country condition reports, such as human rights reports and travel advisories, must connect the realities of the applicant’s home country to the hardship the qualifying relative would face. When properly presented, these elements can significantly improve your chances of approval. Legal guidance is strongly recommended to ensure your case is thorough, accurate, and persuasive.
Tune in on April 28, 2026, at 7:00 PM EST to learn how to build a strong extreme hardship waiver case. If you are preparing an I-601 or I-601A waiver, consider consulting with Lilly Legal for strategic support.

Unlawful presence in the United States can block your path to a green card—but there may be a legal solution that allows you to move forward.
Join Lilly Legal for this Immigration Tip, where Atty. Lilian Chukwurah explains the I-601A provisional waiver. This waiver is designed for individuals who are inadmissible due to unlawful presence but have a qualifying relative — a U.S. citizen or lawful permanent resident spouse or parent, who would suffer extreme hardship if the applicant is denied.
In this episode, Atty. Chukwurah walks through the process step by step, including filing Form I-130, paying the required fees, and obtaining approval for an I-601A waiver before leaving the U.S. for a consular interview. She explains the importance of building strong evidence of extreme hardship, such as medical conditions, financial dependence, and emotional impact. She also clarifies that the waiver covers only unlawful presence and does not apply to other grounds of inadmissibility, such as criminal grounds.
Tune in to learn whether the I-601A waiver may apply to your case and how to prepare effectively. For personalized guidance, consider scheduling a consultation with Lilly Legal.
