The I-601A program contemplates an individual being here in the U. S., not a person who is already outside the country. Your husband will have to do a regular I-601 waiver following denial of the immigrant visa at the home consulate and wait overseas while it is being adjudicated.Due to the limitations of the Lawyers.com Forums, Alan Lee, Esq.'s (the "Firm") participation in responding to questions posted herein does not constitute legal advice, nor legal representation of the person or entity posting a question.
