USCIS Decision? Here’s how to Appeal

USCIS decision got you down? Don't give up! Here's how to fight back with an appeal:

  1. Read the Notice: Understand why your application/petition was denied and if you have the right to appeal.

  2. Check Eligibility: Not all decisions can be appealed. See if you need administrative review, tribunal appeal (AAO/BIA), or reconsideration.

  3. File the Right Form: Use Form I-290B for immigration benefits appeals or Form EOIR-29 for removal orders (immigration court).

  4. Gather Evidence: Fight the denial! Submit documents to support your case.

  5. Pay the Fee (if any): Don't forget any required filing fees to avoid rejection.

  6. Meet the Deadline: File your appeal on time! Missing it can get your case dismissed.

  7. Wait for the Decision: Appeals take time. Be patient!

  8. Get Help (Optional): Consider consulting an immigration attorney for guidance.

Appealing can be tricky. Follow these steps and seek help if needed to increase your chances of success!
