Approved thanks to advance planning
NOID
Planning Ahead From the Fingerprinting Stage
Background
A graduate with an excellent academic record who retained our firm as early as the fingerprinting stage to plan ahead.
Challenges
The case received an RFE at the fingerprinting stage and then, as expected, a NOID.
Strategy
Because we had prepared a contingency plan in advance, we were able to file the response as soon as the NOID arrived.
Outcome
Approved (RFE received early December · NOID received 1/16 · response filed 1/22 · approved 1/27).
