A:
To apply for a 212 waiver after a past drug trafficking offense, you need to demonstrate extreme hardship to a U.S. citizen or lawful permanent resident family member. With seven children and a fiancé, it’s important to gather strong evidence showing how your removal would negatively impact their lives, emotionally and financially. You can include medical records, financial statements, and statements from family members to support your case.
Drug trafficking is considered a serious offense, so the waiver process can be tough. However, you must show rehabilitation and that you are no longer involved in such activities. Any proof of your positive contributions to society, like employment, community involvement, and good character, will help strengthen your waiver application.
Make sure all the required paperwork is completed thoroughly and correctly. If possible, consider getting legal help to navigate the process more smoothly and increase your chances of success.
