1. I faxed to 2149625428, 2149622632, 2149625441 with the officer number I found on the denial letter.
2. check letter samples here: http://www.donkeyroad.com/download.php
3. Again, ask your lawyer to contact AILA for help. CIS still treats AILA seriously.

I appreciate all the support I got here and wish you guys good luck!

Let me know if I can do something for you.

according to my lawyer, writing to FL/Senator/Congressman will be of little help, since they don't know the immigration law. CIS can use any excuse to fool them. But contacting AILA via lawyer will guarrantee you a reasonable answer in 2 weeks.

But in my case, contacting TSC directly (since I knew the officer # from the denial notice) hit the target.

Topic: Help!!! My I-485 got denied!

Here is the update for my case. After I got the denial letter on Oct, 7, knowing it was a mistake by TSC, I wrote letters to the first lady, two senator and one congressman. I faxed to TSC with any numbers I could find on internet. I wrote to the office directly too. I mailed out the MTRs on 10/13. Then something dramatic happened. On 10/14, my lawyer got a call from the officer. He said he knew he made a mistake and would open my wife's and my case soon. He also said no need to submit the MTR. And today, I got two online update: my wife's case reopened, AND CARD ORDERED FOR ME!

I know. According to my lawyer, the time frame to fix this mistake is 6~8 months. I will file the MTR asap. But meanwhile, is there anything I can do to speed it? 6~8 months are too long!

Topic: Help!!! My I-485 got denied!

Just got an Email from my lawyer:

We have received the denial notice for your and your wife's I-485s. Reason for denial: premature filing (I-485 was filed before Quota becomes available). CIS mistakenly treated this as an EB3 case. We should file a motion to reopen/reconsider for CIS to correct the mistake and approve I-485. The motion must be filed within 30 days from the date of the denial notice. The denial is dated 10/30/07 and sent by regular mail on 10/31/07 reaching our office yesterday afternoon. CIS needs to receive the motion by 11/29/07. The filing fee for one motion is $585. You may question since it is a CIS error, why can we not just write a letter requesting for correction. Yes we can but I am afraid CIS may just ignore it and meanwhile we pass the 30 window. We should file the motion and request for refund. Besides, you may call CIS and tell them this is an EB2 case but I still advise filing the motion unless we get I-485 approval before 11/28/07. Let me know.

I am still waiting for the deny letter.

As to 140, I have 2 approved 140s. EB3 140 approved in Feb, 2007 and EB2 140 approved in April, 2007. When they approved my eb2 140, they carried over the old PD (10/2002).

Now I am very curious about the reasons they picked to deny my case.

Thanks! Sdtx and EB1A072507. I used AP once. My H1-b will expire in Jan 2008. Can I renew it? If go for MTR, how soon will my I-485 be reopenned? Will my AP and EAD be valid again?

Thanks!

Topic: Help!!! My I-485 got denied!

EB2, PD 2002, filed I-485 at the end of May, 2007. On Oct, 30, TSC denied my I-485. Both my lawyer and I couldn't think of a possible reason. We are waiting for the written notice sent out on Oct, 31.

Here is my question: If TSC made a wrong decission, which will solve the issue quicker? MTR or REFILE?

It was a long journey and I was that close to freedom. When I looked at my young kids running around, knowing we might have to sell our house and everything and leave, I felt very sad.
