I-821

Case Was Denied

TPS application

What this means

USCIS decided against approving this filing. The denial (or rejection) notice explains why and whether you can appeal, file a motion, or refile. Deadlines are short — often 30 days.

What to do next

Read the entire notice immediately. Calendar any appeal or motion deadline. Talk to a licensed immigration attorney or accredited representative before the deadline passes — do not ignore the letter.
