If you received a Notice of Intent to Deny (NOID) or another indication that United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) will deny your application or petition, our team wants to help. Challenging a denial and filing an appeal is essential to getting approval and proper documentation to remain in the United States or come to this country.
Immigration appeals can be time-consuming and complex. You don’t have to handle it alone, though. You can hire a lawyer to get advice and help you navigate the process. Our immigration appeal immigration lawyers in Scottsdale, AZ, are here to help. Consider scheduling a strategy session with one of our attorneys to learn what to do next.
Our Immigration Appeal Attorneys Handle Many Types of Denials
When an agency issues a decision, there is the opportunity to request another authority review that decision to determine if it was correct. This is known as an appeal. At New Frontier Immigration Law, our attorneys help clients navigate several types of immigration appeals. Some ways we can help include:
Fighting Deportation
We can assess your next steps to fight removal or deportation. These proceedings are sometimes complex and involve several issues. We can evaluate your options and develop a plan to fight your removal or your loved one’s possible deportation.
Reopening a Closed Case
We can help gather and submit new information and request that the immigration office reviews it. Based on this new evidence, we ask them to reopen the closed case and reconsider their previous decision.
Reconsideration
It is sometimes effective to request that the immigration office reviews its decision to decline your application or petition. This is often a good step when we believe the agency used an incorrect application of the law or a policy to deny you.
Other Options
Depending on the circumstances, there could be other options. Sometimes, we use a combination of a motion to reconsider and reopen when navigating a USCIS case, for example.
Our team knows how to assess the options, determine the best approach and navigate these processes. We can help you with your immigration appeal regardless of who made the decision. We may be able to appeal decisions made by:
- USCIS
- An immigration judge
- The Department of Homeland Security (DHS)
- An asylum officer

How Long do I Have to Challenge a Denial or Revocation?
When the USCIS issues a NOID or otherwise denies an application or petition, you generally only have a short time to decide on your next steps. Typically, this is as little as 30 days. We encourage you to connect with an immigration appeals attorney from our team as soon as you learn about the denial or revocation.
This deadline applies to all options you might consider following a denial. This includes motions to reconsider, motions to reopen the case, or appeal the judge’s decision.
It takes time to prepare and act on a denial. We generally need to take legal action or file additional motions. We can only do this after we assess the case, learn the facts, and determine the best plan of action. For this reason, we recommend scheduling your initial strategic session with our team as quickly as possible after a denial.

Who Hears My Scottsdale, AZ, Immigration Appeal?
There are generally two possible answers to this question, and which one applies in your case depends greatly on the circumstances. You may be able to appeal to the:
- Board of Immigration Appeals (BIA) in the U.S. Department of Justice; or
- Administrative Appeals Office (AAO) of the USCIS
The BIA usually handles cases involving removal, detainment, or deportation. Usually, we file these appeals after an immigration judge denies a case. The AAO deals primarily with employment-based visas and non-immigrant visas.
Based on the case facts, our attorney can determine which body needs to hear your appeal. Then, we may prepare and file the motion to reopen, motion to reconsider, or appeal with the proper authority.
