Immigration Appeals

An unfavorable immigration decision may raise questions about appeal or other review. The available process and deadlines depend on who issued the decision, the type of case, and the date and manner of service.

Schedule a Consultation

Act promptly and confirm deadlines

Appeal and review periods can be short. Do not rely on a general webpage to calculate a deadline. Keep the complete decision and envelope or proof of service, and seek legal advice promptly.

Different decisions may be reviewed by different bodies or may require a different procedural request. Whether a review is available depends on the procedural record and applicable law.

Build a record-based analysis

Counsel may need the decision, hearing transcripts or records, applications, evidence submitted, and all prior notices. A review is not simply a re-filing of the original application; legal and procedural issues must be identified carefully.

Schedule a Consultation

Every immigration matter depends on its own facts. A consultation can provide an opportunity to discuss possible next steps.
