We received the online notification today. We are heartbroken and broke. He can't work and only on my income. They said we'd receive the reasons within 2 weeks of why it was denied. But, I can't for the life of me understand why they would deny him. His 485 is pending, we sent in the information for the RFE. I don't get it. It's like they kept stalling us. Do you think because he called everyday, they just stamped it denied? I'm sorry. We are so depressed, down and confused. I know we'll get the answers, but I'm anxious. Anyone else go through this?

What was the RFE for? What did you send in response? If you did not satisfy the RFE, then they can deny.

What visa is he adjusting from? What category did you put on the form?

Ok he's adjusting from an expired student visa. The I-130 was already approved. They requested a copy of the I-94. We sent it the day after we received the request. He was detained two years ago for 19 days and they took his passport, so we are waiting on the deportation hearing set for next year. The lawyer we had at the time filed his I-485, but failed to file a Motion to terminate the deportation proceedings before our I-130 interview. So ICE could not make a determination on the I485, and left it to the immigration court. So we lost the filing fee and have to refile the 485. In the meantime we filed the I-765.

So do you currently not have a pending I-485?

So what basis does he have for getting an EAD? What eligibility category was used? He has no pending I-485, so he is not an adjustment applicant.

The USCIS notification denial letter should let you know exactly why it was denied.
