Did you recently receive a NOID in the mail? Are you struggling to figure out exactly what to do next? No one ever wants to receive a NOID. However, always remember: a NOID is not a rejection. A NOID is not synonymous with a denial. Rather, a NOID is a chance to “turn your case around,” to get approval after NOID. We can help. Below are some facts about NOIDs as well as how we can help.
NOID: The Basics
A NOID comes as a letter from USCIS indicating their intent to deny. For the most part, it will include your immigration history, what you’re applying for, and, (most importantly to you at this moment), what evidence/documentation you must provide/what you must do to be approved.
If you have received a NOID, this indicates a likely path to denial. The moment you get a Notice of Intent to Deny (NOID) from USCIS, it indicates a potential denial of your application due to inadequate or lack of appropriate evidence. Remember: the “I” and “D” stand for “intent to deny.” If you receive a NOID, they do intend to deny your application as it stands right now.
The probability of you successfully convincing them without qualified legal assistance and overcoming the Notice of Intent to Deny may be against you, but it’s not impossible. This is a time-sensitive matter as the window to respond adequately is typically about thirty days. We can help you.
What to Keep In Mind
Think of a NOID as an indication that you haven’t done enough, that your case isn’t compelling enough right now to get you the benefit that you want. All a NOID is saying is that if an appropriate response is not provided or if the supporting evidence doesn’t suffice, the USCIS reserves the right to deny the application.
Thus, when navigating the complexities of USCIS procedures and dealing with a NOID, having professional legal assistance significantly increases your chances of a favorable outcome.
Being issued a NOID isn’t equivalent to losing your case. It’s a wake-up call. All it is is the USCIS telling you that your case is facing some serious issues and needs immediate, thorough intervention. It means you’ve come under the scanner, and the USCIS is scrutinizing your case closely.
What you should take from a NOID is a sense of urgency. The NOID will tell you which issues must be addressed swiftly and effectively. At Rijal Law Firm, our team of legal professionals can guide you through the process every step of the way.

At the Rijal Law Firm, we pride ourselves on having a track record of overturning NOIDs. Success in such cases is challenging, and the reversal rate might not be the majority. It might be achievable in about a quarter to a third of cases, depending on the nature of the issues raised.
The path to resisting a NOID isn’t always smooth. If it raises legal issues that are straightforward, it’s relatively easier to navigate. When the matter is more subjective, and USCIS has a fair amount of discretion, these NOIDs can be trickier to combat.
