Seeking a Second Opportunity After an Immigration Decision
A motion to reopen may allow a person to ask the immigration court, Board of Immigration Appeals, or immigration agency to reopen a case based on new facts, new evidence, changed circumstances, or other legally recognized reasons.
At Kanu & Associates, P.C., we help clients review prior immigration decisions and determine whether a motion to reopen may be available.
When May a Motion to Reopen Be Appropriate?
A motion to reopen may be considered when important evidence was not previously available, circumstances have changed, a person missed court for a valid reason, prior counsel may have been ineffective, or a new form of relief may now be available.
These motions are deadline-sensitive and require careful preparation.
How We Can Help
Our firm can assist with:
- Reviewing prior orders and decisions
- Identifying new evidence
- Evaluating changed circumstances
- Preparing legal arguments
- Gathering supporting documents
- Filing motions with the appropriate court or agency
- Developing next-step strategy if the case is reopened
