Pardons & Waivers of Canada http://www.pardonswaiverscanada.com/ Outrageous prices to "clear your record" Internet
I'm taking 5 minutes to sign up on this website so that others will know to be careful using online companies for "Pardons & Waivers". I dealt with "Pardons & Waivers of Canada" who do not display prices on their website but charge you, minimum, of 1000$ for "service fees", they offer no support, can hardly be reached at, takes over a year, and all they do is mail you xeroxed copies of Documents one could have found online. You then have to pay to get your fingerprints taken, and you have to pay another 500$ fee to ask the US Gov. for a waiver. My advise is: download the form at home. You'll have everything you need written on the form or online.

MY LAWYER QUOTED ME $5000 FOR A PARDON AND $8500 FOR MY WAIVER, Funny thing was, he was using Pardons and waivers of Canada to do the processing. (I just went direct)

Obviously the above person has not attempted to do the Waiver application themselves.
Fortunately for you reading this, I had an actual real experience dealing homeland security first hand applying for my Waiver application. I'm 67 years young, well educated and graduated through university many years back. I attempted to apply for the US waiver myself and had the unfortunate experience of being rejected two times based on small errors.
Please keep in mind that the US government fee is $585 and they do not return that for any rejected applications.
Thankfully there are companies out there that are actually specialized in this type of work. This company in particular fixed my rejected application and charged $150 fee. (which later my waiver was approved)
My question to your advice is "would you pull your own teeth with a pair of pliers to save a an "initial" few hundred dollars if you had a tooth ache? Thus, possibly costing you more in repairs, Or would you hire a dentist, someone who is specialized.
The choice is fundamentally yours.
