Reasons Why Your Visa Could Be Denied
In most cases, a visa denial needs to be appealed within just 30 days of the notice being mailed to you, not necessarily when you first saw the notice of denial. The United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) is not known for extending deadlines so you have to act quickly.

The I-290 Notice of Appeal needs to present a clear argument as to why the denial of your visa was incorrect or unjust. A strong starting point is understanding why it was denied in the first place.
Reasons why a visa might be denied include:
- Missing a filing deadline
- Providing incorrect information
- USCIS requests more information from applicant
- Applicant has applied for the wrong visa
- Applicant is applying from a foreign entity currently banned from entry

At our law firm, we like to sit down with our clients during an initial consultations to get to know them, their situation, and their objectives.
