Why Immigration Psychological Evaluations Are Essential for Hardship Waivers
A psychological evaluation is often a crucial component in helping immigration attorneys demonstrate “extreme hardship,” a requirement for many waivers. USCIS wants to know exactly how a qualifying relative will suffer if their loved one is denied entry or deported.
AACS Counseling specializes in identifying and documenting:
- Emotional Hardship
Our evaluations outline the emotional and psychological impact of separation, including:- Anxiety, depression, or trauma symptoms
- Increased dependency on the qualifying relative
- Mental health challenges that would worsen if separated
- Psychological vulnerability and stability of spouses, parents, or children
- Financial Hardship
We assess:- Loss of income
- Increased cost of child care, medical care, or household support
- Inability to work due to mental health impairment
- Medical Hardship
We document:- Chronic illness requiring care
- Mental health conditions requiring treatment
- Disability and dependency needs
- Lack of adequate medical care in a foreign country
- Educational Hardship
Especially relevant when children are involved, such as:- Special education needs
- Disruption of academic progress
- Limited resources abroad
- Country Conditions Hardship
Our clinicians integrate supporting evidence regarding:- Country instability
- Violence or political unrest
- Lack of mental health services
- Poverty, discrimination, and limited opportunity
A psychological evaluation helps humanize your case, providing a clear narrative that connects emotional, medical, and environmental hardships to real, measurable consequences—something that attorneys, judges, and USCIS adjudicators rely on heavily.

Types of Immigration Psychological Evaluations AACS Counseling Provides
Below is a detailed description of each assessment we offer, along with the specific ways we strengthen your immigration case:
- I-601 Hardship Waiver Evaluation (Extreme Hardship Evaluation)

- Mental health conditions
- Financial loss and instability
- Medical or caregiving needs

Our clinicians analyze both scenarios and provide a compelling narrative of emotional, medical, financial, and cultural hardship.
