Form I-485 denied

[MiszNatalie 0]

Hi everyone/anyone,

I was recently denied my I-485 (change of status), I'm confused as to what will happen now. Reading around it says I can be removed? I thought once we were married I was allowed to stay and that I just won't be able to work or travel until I got my green card. I think we're going to reapply because again reading around suggests USCIS doesn't like to change their mind or admit mistakes, when we do apply again will I need to file for approved parole again or will it be reinstated while my new I-485 is pending?

Also trying to get an appointment through infopass is impossible.

Thanks

what was the reason for denial , lack of evidence or error in the filing?

Lack of evidence, he didn't make enough money to support me this year but it says you can list assets. We did that but they've decided that even if you exceed the value of assets they required they deny you anyway

Can you reapply with a cosponsor? I am not sure if that is an option for the I-485.

Information states you can be removed because with a denied I-485 (greencard application) you have no way to stay legally.

It is quite unusual for AOS to be outright denied, unless you files something wrong, such as didn't include the fee or made the check out for too much. As mentioned, there is little we can advice until we know why you were denied.

That being said, you SHOULD be ok to re-file and be legal until that second one is determined, unless you already got a removal notice.

Can the assets be easily liquidated? Listing things like your primary home, care, car etc. would not be acceptable. How many times the minimum value were these assets worth?

Yeah it is an option for the I-485 but we unfortunately don't have anyone to ask.

Easily enough, he did list a couple of cars amongst other things so I guess that's why it was denied. I can't remember how many times the minimum value was, it was awhile ago and my husband filled out all of the paperwork. I just know he said it was much more than required.

Hey, I did say in an above post why it was denied. We still have 27 days to file a motion so I should be ok until then, do you know how long it usually takes to receive a removal notice?

At what point in the process were you denied? With or without interview? Could you fill out your timeline please?

[MiszNatalie 0]

Without interview, sure I'll try.

It is surprising you got denied without them giving you extra time to find a co-sponsor. You can try documenting the assets better, or if you have EAD, find a job yourself.

You received an RFE for an improper I-864. You responded with another improper I-864. They can deny if your RFE is not correct. They gave you at least 2 chances. If you had met the requirement they would not have denied you. So, sorry to say, but the requirement was not met.

If your husband did it then he should come here and ask, since just saying "it was enough" is not going to help you.

You can reapply, but you will need to figure out exactly where you went wrong and rectify the situation. It sucks, but it is fixable. Good luck.

Given that you received a denial it is strange that you have no real details about what you submitted beside to say "it was enough" and you don't know as your husband sent it in a while ago. So again, what exactly did you send?
