What is a waiver?

Form I-192 is a request for advance permission to enter the United States. The decision is discretionary: it belongs to CBP / DHS, the US border authorities. With a record, trying to cross without a waiver risks a refusal — and every refusal is recorded.

IMPORTANT

A Canadian pardon is not recognized by the United States. The two are complementary: the pardon resolves your situation in Canada, the waiver opens the US border. See the pardon application

Frequently asked questions

Can I enter the US with a DUI?

A single DUI does not automatically trigger a ban, but officers have broad discretion. Depending on your full record, a waiver may be the safest route. We assess it with you, free.
