Denied! Now What Do I Do?

Topics:
  • Other Immigration

Even when we think we’ve done everything right as an advocate, we all have to face receiving application denials. Maybe USCIS made an erroneous decision, or maybe a client neglected to provide information impacting on eligibility for the benefit sought. Or maybe the advocate missed a legal or factual issue that was relevant to the case adjudication.

If your client is indeed eligible for the benefit she or he is seeking, what options can you pursue after an application is denied? Move to reopen or reconsider? File an appeal? Contact a congressional liaison or advocacy network? Refile?

To examine these alternatives in detail, and consider the factors that impact what actions to take, join CLINIC attorneys Kristina Karpinski and Susan Schreiber in a webinar addressing these issues.
