Notices & Appeals
Responding to USCIS Notices and appealing denials.
Submitting Requested Evidence and Rebutting USCIS Findings
​
If your petition or application is incomplete and missing relevant evidence, have insufficient evidence to make a final decision, or was approved by mistake, USCIS may issue a Request for Evidence (RFE), Notice of Intent to Deny (NOID), or a Notice of Intent to Revoke (NOIR) . These notices give you the opportunity to response to USCIS and provide the requested evidence or rebut USCIS findings within a specific time period, usually 30 to 90 days.
Request for Evidence (RFE)
If you receive a Request for Evidence (RFE) letter, you are most likely being asked to submit more evidence, missing evidence, or documentation to support your petition or application. In this case you, as the petitioner/applicant, must submit all the requested information/documentations at the same time to avoid further delay in the processing of your petition or application.
​
Notice of Intent to Deny (NOID)
If you receive a Notice of Intent to Deny (NOID) it means a final decision has not been made on your case and you are being asked to further prove your eligibility for the immigration relief you are seeking, or establish you deserve a favorable decision based on the evidence you have submitted.
USCIS will issue the NOID and state the basis for the proposed denial. You have 30 days from the date of the notice to respond to USCIS by providing sufficient evidence to rebut USCIS findings and overcome the proposed denial.
We are skilled and meticulous in our response to USCIS.
Responding to USCIS requires extensive knowledge of the immigration law. Failure to make the right or best argument to overcome or rebut USCIS findings may result in a denial decision of your petition or application.

I-485,Application to Register Permanent Residence or Adjust Status
​
Dear Sir or Madam,
This letter is in response to your Notice of Intent to Deny (NOID), dated November 05, 2022.
Notice of Intent to Rescind (NOIR)
A Notice of Intent to Rescind (NOIR) is generally issued to terminate a lawful permanent resident (LPR) status if USCIS discovers the Green Card was erroneously approved at the time when the LPR was not eligible. If you receive a NOIR, you have 30 days from the date of receipt to respond to USCIS and rebut the allegations specified in the NOIR. Failure to respond to the NOIR, or admitting to all the allegations within the NOIR, will result in a final decision to rescind your Green Card and you may not appeal the decision.
​
Denial of Petition or Application
If USCIS denies your petition or application based on adverse information, you are entitled to a notice of the denial reason(s) and an opportunity to rebut the adverse information.
​
Appeals
If your petition or application was denied, and the decision is appealable, you may appeal by filing Form I-290B, Notice of Appeal or Motion, with a brief supporting your appeal or motion. A brief in support of your appeal or motion is a written legal argument demonstrating to USCIS/ the immigration court why you should be granted a favorable decision. An effective and persuasive brief requires legal knowledge and expertise. Thus, you should consult an immigration attorney before submitting your Form I-290B and brief.
​
Motion to Reopen or Reconsider
If your case has been administratively closed, you can submit a motion to reopen or reconsider the final decision.
