❌ **Case Status: Denied**
---
An I-485 application was denied in March 2026 due to missing joint sponsor W-2 tax documents. The applicant filed an I-290B Motion to Reopen, which was granted after approximately 3 months and 10 days, with an interview subsequently scheduled.
An I-485 adjustment of status application was denied due to incomplete financial sponsorship documentation — specifically, the joint sponsor's W-2 forms were not included. The applicant responded by filing Form I-290B (Notice of Appeal or Motion) as a Motion to Reopen. After 3 months and 10 days, USCIS granted the motion and scheduled an interview, allowing the case to move forward rather than requiring a new filing.
