Denied.. seems like USICS ignored my RFE reply
Hello. I have received my 140 denial letter following me replying to USIC’s RFE. The letter confirms receiving my RFE response, but all the reasons for denial were the same as the original RFE letter… it was as if they never bothered reading my reply, and they just copied and pasted the RFE letter. Anyone else?

oh no. what was the reason for denial?
J kSep 29, 2023

@Teresa Lee I can appreciate this experience... It's hurtful to say the least. File a I-290B motion to reopen, write a letter and attach new evidence, could be similar to what you've already submitted. It'll be sent back to the service centre that denied the petition and just as subjective as this process is, the new Officer to review your motion could have a different insight! Honestly, it appears some of these Officers that review are not thorough or patient! They just want to keep "things moving" and not particularly mindful of the details involved.🤦🏾‍♀️ But just keep pushing, by God's grace you'll testify with great news! I know it's not easy, BELIEVE ME, I KNOW... Here's my journey to encourage you: https://www.lawfully.com/community/posts/god-does-many-things-but-one-thing-he-cant-do-is-fail-CiswS0mGcBw7I693dmblNA==

Thank you, this was in Texas.. the denial reasons were the same as the RFE - prong 1, 2 and 3. I provided an answer in my reply of the RFE to all 3 prongs.. but it looks like they didn't read it - as the denial is just a copy and paste of the RFE. It is very frustrating

Camilo BSep 29, 2023
Could you tell us which officer evaluated your case? thanks

@Teresa Lee did you use premium processing or was it regular filing

@Teresa Lee and what was your proposed plan/ field?

Teresa LeeSep 29, 2023
Artur D - lawyer for part of the original application.. then someone else for the RFE.. what did you do in the end?

Teresa LeeSep 29, 2023
Olu.. normal processing but they were very quick with me

@Teresa Lee refile and appeal. AAO sustained the appeal and refile was approved.

Artur DSep 29, 2023
@OO_ 2021 it's better to appeal to the AAO. it will still include mentioned above steps.

Artur DSep 29, 2023
@Teresa Lee don't file motions to reopen unless it is clear mistake. the success rate is extremely low.
T
Teresa LeeSep 29, 2023
@Artur D yes, and I think motion to reopen just goes to the original officer (I could be wrong). the dude couldn’t even be bothered to even read my original petition (the RFE was asking for stuff I already sent)and then totally ignored my RFE reply.. don’t really want to go back to him..

Artur DSep 29, 2023
@Teresa Lee exactly as mine. Just let it go and focus on next steps. You can appeal and refile at the same time but it is a bit tricky. I followed my lawyers advises.
OO_ 2021Sep 29, 2023
@Artur D stories differ ☺️, the review process is greatly uncertain and subjective. However, motion to reopen was my preference and the path to my approval, given as I was able to get new evidence to further buttress my case... Honestly, it truly was God through and through...

@Artur D thank you, yes I am going to appeal and might also refile.. it is more money but I have come so far now… did you win your appeal?

@OO_ 2021 thank you so much for sharing! I am very happy for you!

@Artur D sorry just seen your appeal was approved and also your refile! that is amazing news

@Teresa Lee what’s the officer please?

Artur DSep 29, 2023
@Teresa Lee keep in mind that process of the review is really subjective. After 6 months from my denial my case was approved without an RFE. Keep in mind that visa bulletin is a mess and maybe appeal will save yours.

Artur DSep 29, 2023
@OO_ 2021 why did you decide to file motion to reopen and not appeal?
Sefiu AmusatSep 29, 2023
@Teresa Lee Sorry about that? what is your profile?

@Teresa Lee okay, all the best

Teresa LeeSep 30, 2023
@Artur D yes the visa bulletin is a mess.. I am not sure if you can send DMs but would you mind letting me know who your officer was/were? i guess it is a lottery who you get at USICS

@Artur D thank you very much! may I ask you please (as the person that wrote my RFE response has no time to help me, now I have paid..) what did you write for the brief to the AAO… I have been told it is “very easy” to write, but I am not sure where to start? not sure if you can recommend anything or anyone? thank you
