When USCIS denies an EB-1A petition, the denial notice explains what evidence was found insufficient or what legal standard was not met. That analysis is the starting point for your next step. Silmi Law reviews denial notices promptly and advises on the most viable path forward — whether that means challenging the decision through a motion or appeal, strengthening and refiling, or pursuing an alternative green card category. Contact us immediately after receiving a denial to preserve your options.
