Case Approval Was Revoked

The approval of your case has been revoked.

What it means

USCIS revoked an earlier approval, so it no longer stands.

What happens next

Read the notice for appeal or motion options and deadlines; talk to an immigration attorney.

Is this the status on your case?

Ask me. I'll walk you through what it means for you, with data from the cases I follow.

My status says "Case Approval Was Revoked". What does it mean for my case? What usually happens after "Case Approval Was Revoked", and how long does it take? What should I do if I have "Case Approval Was Revoked" and nothing arrives?

Want to know as soon as your case leaves this status?

I check it with USCIS several times a day and email you when it moves. Free.

I only use your email to tell you about your case; you can stop the alerts anytime.
