What Will Happen in the Appeals Process?
The Board of Immigration Appeals (BIA) must receive your appeal within 30 days after the immigration judge has denied your petition, which is a critical deadline that must be adhered to in order to preserve your rights. At Lacki & Company, LLC, your attorney will meticulously prepare a detailed legal brief that presents your case in a clear and thorough manner, encompassing all relevant facts, evidence, and compelling arguments that bolster your position. Once the board reviews your brief in conjunction with the immigration judge’s initial decision, they will issue a formal decision. This decision can either result in the dismissal of your appeal, which means your case will not proceed any further, or it may lead to the remand of your case back to the immigration judge for additional consideration and review. It’s important to note that while your appeal is pending, you are allowed to remain in the U.S., providing you with some peace of mind throughout what can often be a lengthy and complex process. Don’t face this challenging situation on your own; the experienced immigration attorneys at Lacki & Company, LLC are readily available and fully prepared to assist you every step of the way. Begin your appeals process today and ensure that you have the best possible representation during this crucial time.
What If the Board of Immigration Appeals Denies My Appeal?
If the Board of Immigration Appeals (BIA) denies your appeal, you may still have options. In some cases, you can take your case to a U.S. Federal Court of Appeals by filing a Petition for Review within 30 days of the BIA’s decision. Both your attorney and the Department of Homeland Security will submit written briefs, and in certain situations, your attorney may have the opportunity to present your case in person before a panel of three judges. If your appeal was denied by the BIA, schedule a consultation with the immigration attorneys at Lacki & Company, LLC to discuss your next steps and representation during this stage of the process.
