What it means for your I-914 Supplement A

A denied Supplement A can often be appealed to the Administrative Appeals Office or challenged by motion with Form I-290B within a short deadline. A denial may also follow a denial of the principal's I-914. Talk to an immigration attorney or accredited representative right away.

In general, on any form:

USCIS denied your application or petition. A decision letter explains the reasons and any options. Some denials can be appealed or reopened, and some can be filed again. Deadlines for these options are short.

Avoid these mistakes

Waiting too long and missing the appeal or motion deadline.
Refiling the same application without fixing the reason for denial.
Ignoring the effect on your legal status.
