As an American immigration lawyer, I rarely have occasion to comment on  policies and procedures that could affect US citizens traveling abroad. However, recent news out of the Department of State&#8217;s passport office seems important enough to share.
You may have noticed that laws for travel throughout the western hemisphere have changed dramatically over the last [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Needing a 601 waiver to get a green card through marriage is no insignificant thing.  The proper preparation of a waiver will require many hours of work on the part of both the immigration lawyer and his clients. And yes, you should hire a  lawyer to prepare the waiver.
