How can I appeal a denial of an immigrant visa?

If you have been denied an immigrant visa in Oregon, you may have the right to appeal the decision to the Board of Immigration Appeals (BIA). The BIA is part of the U.S. Department of Justice and is responsible for reviewing appeals from Immigration Courts and other immigration agency decisions. The BIA’s decision can be appealed further to the U.S. Court of Appeals. To appeal a denial of an immigrant visa, you should first request an appeal to the BIA by completing a form called a “Notice of Appeal” and submitting it to the U.S. Immigration Court that issued the decision. The Notice of Appeal must be filed within 30 days of the date the decision was issued. The Notice of Appeal must include a brief statement of the facts and a statement of the legal grounds on which the appeal is taken. When the Notice of Appeal is filed, you may be required to file a brief with the BIA. A brief is a detailed legal argument that supports your position on the issue. Once the BIA has reviewed your appeal and has issued a decision, you may file a Notice of Appeal with the U.S. Court of Appeals in order to challenge the BIA’s decision. It is important to remember that appealing a denial of an immigrant visa can be a long and complex process. If you need assistance with appealing a decision, you should consider consulting an experienced immigration attorney. An attorney can help you understand the complex legal requirements and can ensure that your appeal is properly drafted and filed on time.

Un recurso para apelar una negación de una visa de inmigrante es presentar una apelación administrativa al Servicio de Ciudadanía e Inmigración de Estados Unidos (USCIS). La apelación administrativa permite que se reconsidere el asunto de la negación de una visa de inmigrante. El USCIS emitirá una decisión sobre la apelación dentro de los 60 días a partir de la presentación de la apelación. Los solicitantes deben presentar la apelación administrativa al oficial que emitió la decisión original negando la visa de inmigrante. Se recomienda que el solicitante incluya toda la información nueva que respalde el caso de la visa de inmigrante al presentar la apelación. Si se rechaza la apelación, el USCIS le notificará al solicitante, y el solicitante deberá presentar una nueva solicitud para obtener la visa de inmigrante. Si el solicitante de visa de inmigrante vive en el estado de Oregon, los residentes de Oregon pueden buscar ayuda de asesores legales autorizados por el USCIS en la Biblioteca de Referencia de la Ciudad de Portland o el programa tantan abogadas de inmigración Latinoamericano. Estos asesores legales pueden ayudar al solicitante a presentar una apelación y proporcionar consejos sobre cualquier otra acción que el solicitante pueda tomar. Además, el Departamento de Estado de Oregon también ofrece asistencia legal y consejos para los solicitantes de visa de inmigrante.
