The Grounds for Appealing an Immigration Decision

Numerous unfavorable immigration decisions regarding asylum, deportation, inadmissibility, adjustment of status, and others can be appealed. The grounds for doing so include, but are not limited to, the following: 

  • Incorrect or misinterpreted laws, regulations, or legal precedents
  • Inaccurate or incomplete evidence
  • Procedural mistakes during your immigration case
  • Violations of your rights
  • Inadequate representation

Who Handles Immigration Appeals?

Immigration appeals are typically handled by the Board of Immigration Appeals (BIA). It hears appeals of decisions by immigration judges, the Department of Homeland Security, and others. 

It is important to note that you can appeal decisions by the BIA. This involves requesting that a higher court review the decision and consider additional information or testimony. In Charlotte, for example, you may file an appeal with the US Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit, which has jurisdiction over our area. 

When Can I File an Appeal?

In most cases, you must file an appeal within 30 days of the decision by USCIS or an immigration judge. This brief period makes it crucial to seek the assistance of an attorney like ours at The Fogle Law Firm, LLC if you are considering this option. 

Writs of Mandamus, Administrative Procedure Act (APA) Actions, & Other Litigation Matters

If you have already exhausted your administrative appeals or are not eligible for one, you may still fight the decision or pursue recourse for a wrongful action. Doing this essentially involves filing a lawsuit against the relevant agency that seeks a different ruling or requests that the agency perform a specific action.  

Our attorneys can bring actions under the Administrative Procedure Act (APA) before federal district courts if the government has violated its own regulations during your case. A writ of mandamus is another legal option, which involves asking a court to compel USCIS to make a decision on your pending application instead of letting it sit idle for months or longer. 

We can pursue other types of litigation concerning your immigration rights, such as:

  • Habeas corpus petitions
  • Civil rights actions
  • Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) cases
  • Preliminary injunctions

    "Thank you so much!"
    I was referred to the Fogle Law Firm by 5 other people, and I must say that I'm so happy I heeded their advice. Mr. Fogle definitely knows his stuff!!! He handled my case very professionally and didn't "beat around the bush" like other lawyers had done in the past. I appreciated his sincerity and his honesty in giving me the options pertaining to my case. I also appreciated the fact that the paralegal handling my case was prompt in giving me feedback and in letting me know the next steps to take. I will definitely be referring people to you!
