FORM I290B – APPEAL
Depending on your case type, Form I290B, Notice of Appeal or Motion can be used to file an appeal. An Appeal is a request for the AAO review of the presumed erroneous conclusion of law or fact in USCIS’ decision. Unlike motions which request a review by the same authority that issued the decision, Appeals ask a different authority to review the decision.
A perfect example of when you would file an Appeal is if USCIS denies your N-400 application despite you meeting all the stated requirements.
