Common Grounds of Inadmissibility to the United States
According to U.S. immigration law, inadmissibility means that you are prohibited from entering the U.S. if you are living abroad or adjust your immigration status to a legal permanent resident if you are already in the country.
The following are some of the common grounds of inadmissibility:
- Criminal grounds – Having a criminal history that includes a conviction of an aggravated felony, crime of moral turpitude (CMT), drug crime, or any other type of serious criminal offense.
- Past violations – Overstaying your visa and are unlawfully present in the United States or having been previously deported or removed from the country.
- Health-related grounds – Having a communicable disease, being diagnosed with substance abuse, failure to get the necessary vaccinations, or having a dangerous mental or physical disorder.
- Economic grounds – In other words, being most likely to become a “public charge,” which means obtaining government assistance such as welfare, Medicaid or Medicare, and food stamps.
- Misrepresentation of facts – Applying for an immigration benefit by intentionally providing false documentation.
- Security grounds – Being a member of a terrorist or totalitarian organization or participating in an act of persecution or torture.
