When USCIS or another federal immigration agency unreasonably delays a case, denies an application, revokes a petition, or acts inconsistently with federal law, the administrative process may not be the end of the road.

In selected cases, federal law allows individuals and businesses to seek relief in U.S. federal court.

Jing Feng Law Group represents clients in federal immigration litigation involving agency delay, naturalization, and selected challenges to USCIS decisions. Our practice combines more than 19 years of business immigration experience with federal-court strategy, allowing us to evaluate both the underlying immigration case and whether judicial review may offer a meaningful remedy.

Federal Immigration Litigation at a Glance

USCIS case delayed for an unusually long time?
A mandamus or Administrative Procedure Act lawsuit may, in appropriate cases, ask a federal court to require the government to take legally required action.

N-400 still pending after the naturalization examination?
Federal law may provide a specific district-court remedy if USCIS does not decide the application within the statutory period.

Naturalization denied?
Certain denials may be reviewed in federal district court after the required administrative process has been completed.

EB-1A, NIW, O-1, L-1, EB-5 or another petition denied?
Some final USCIS decisions may be subject to federal court review under the Administrative Procedure Act, depending on jurisdiction and reviewability.

Not every immigration decision can be challenged in federal court.
A careful analysis of jurisdiction, final agency action, exhaustion, statutory review limits, venue, and available relief is essential before filing suit.

Federal Immigration Litigation Case Assessment

Federal litigation requires a different level of review from a routine immigration consultation.

A potential federal-court case may require examination of:

• the complete petition or application;
• supporting evidence;
• RFE or NOID notices;
• responses submitted to USCIS;
• denial or revocation decisions;
• appeal history;
• filing and adjudication dates;
• the administrative record;
• jurisdiction and venue; and
• potential federal remedies.

For selected matters, Jing Feng Law Group offers a federal immigration litigation assessment to determine whether judicial review may be available and whether litigation is strategically advisable.
