What Steps to Take After a Visa Denial

At Kasturi Law, LLC, our immigration and nationality law attorney and law firm founder, Shobhana Kasturi, has over 27 years of legal experience and a decade of experience representing individuals and families in Chicago, Cook County, throughout Illinois, and nationwide when their visas have been denied. We can help you, too.

That begins with understanding the reason for the denial.

Carefully read the denial notice you received. It should outline the specific reasons why your application was denied. If possible, ask the consular officer for a detailed explanation of the denial.

Next, collect all documents related to your visa application, including any correspondence with the consulate or embassy. Determine if any missing documents, inaccuracies, or other issues contributed to the denial.

If the denial was due to missing or incorrect information, gather the correct documents and rectify any errors. Once you have addressed the issues, you can reapply for the visa. Ensure that you provide all necessary documentation and correct any previous mistakes.

Our experienced immigration attorney can help you understand the reason for your denial, guide you through the reapplication process, and explore other options. Sometimes, you can appeal the decision or apply for a waiver. We can advise you on the feasibility and method of these options.

That may include applying for a different visa type that suits your circumstances. Or, if you are already in the U.S., you might be able to change your status without leaving the country, depending on your situation and eligibility.

Our Illinois immigration attorney can help you navigate the intricate legal landscape, identify any errors or missing information in your original application, and advise on the best course of action, whether it involves reapplying, appealing the decision, or seeking alternative visa options.
