immigration case, but the rules depend on who decided it and how much time has passed. <strong>Reopening an immigration case<\/strong> comes down to filing the right motion in the right place: a motion to reopen or reconsider with USCIS on Form I-290B after a USCIS denial, or a motion to reopen with the immigration court or Board of Immigration Appeals after a removal order. Deadlines are short, usually 30 to 90 days, though narrow exceptions exist.<\/p>\n<p>This guide explains the two main paths, the deadlines, and the exceptions that can extend them.

A motion to reopen is based on new facts or evidence that were not available before, supported by documentation. A motion to reconsider argues that the decision was legally wrong based on the existing record.<\/p>\n<p>Sometimes you file both together. The key is that reopening introduces new information, while reconsideration challenges how the law was applied to the facts already in the file.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"uscis\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Reopening_a_USCIS_Decision\"><\/span>Reopening a USCIS Decision<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If USCIS denied a petition or application, you generally file Form I-290B to request a motion to reopen or reconsider, usually within 30 days of the decision. The motion goes to the office that made the decision.<\/p>\n<p>You must explain the basis clearly and attach supporting evidence. For a reopen, that means new facts and documents; for a reconsider, that means legal argument showing the decision misapplied the law or policy to your case.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"court\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Reopening_a_Court_Removal_Order\"><\/span>Reopening a Court Removal Order<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If an immigration judge ordered you removed, you generally file a motion to reopen with the immigration court, or with the Board of Immigration Appeals if it had the case. The general deadline is 90 days from the final order, with limits on how many motions you can file.<\/p>\n<figure>\n<table>\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th>Who decided the case<\/th>\n<th>Where to file<\/th>\n<th>General deadline<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>USCIS<\/td>\n<td>Form I-290B to the deciding office<\/td>\n<td>About 30 days<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Immigration judge<\/td>\n<td>Motion with the immigration court<\/td>\n<td>About 90 days<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Board of Immigration Appeals<\/td>\n<td>Motion with the BIA<\/td>\n<td>About 90 days<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/figure>\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/theatlaslegal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/reopen-case-deadlines.jpg\" alt=\"Strict deadlines apply to motions to reopen an immigration case\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><figcaption>Deadlines are usually 30 or 90 days, so act fast.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2 id=\"deadlines\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Deadlines_and_Exceptions\"><\/span>Deadlines and Exceptions<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Deadlines are strict, but some exceptions can extend or lift them. For removal cases, a motion to reopen based on changed country conditions for asylum may not be subject to the usual time and number limits. An in absentia removal order, entered when you missed a hearing, has its own reopening rules.<\/p>\n<p>Other exceptions include reopening based on ineffective assistance of counsel, subject to specific procedural requirements, or joint motions agreed to by the government. Because exceptions are narrow and technical, confirm which one, if any, applies.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"chances\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_Makes_a_Motion_Stronger\"><\/span>What Makes a Motion Stronger<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>A strong motion is specific, timely, and well supported. For a reopen, the new evidence should be material and previously unavailable, not something you could have submitted earlier. For a reconsider, the legal argument should point to the exact error and authority.<\/p>\n<p>Meeting the deadline is often the single most important factor. A late motion usually needs to fit an exception, so acting quickly after a decision preserves the most options.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>Deadlines for reopening move fast, often 30 or 90 days.

It is valuable when you received a denial or removal order, when you have new evidence or believe the law was misapplied, when you missed a hearing, or when you think a deadline may have passed but an exception could apply. An attorney can choose the right motion and forum. Eligibility and outcomes depend on the facts of each case.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"faq\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Frequently_Asked_Questions\"><\/span>Preguntas frecuentes<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Can_I_reopen_my_immigration_case\"><\/span>Can I reopen my immigration case?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Often yes, depending on who decided it and the timing. After a USCIS denial, you generally file Form I-290B within about 30 days. After a removal order, you file a motion to reopen with the immigration court or the Board of Immigration Appeals, generally within 90 days. A motion to reopen presents new facts, while a motion to reconsider argues legal error. Narrow exceptions can extend some deadlines.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_is_the_difference_between_reopen_and_reconsider\"><\/span>What is the difference between reopen and reconsider?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>A motion to reopen is based on new facts or evidence that were not available when the decision was made, supported by documentation. A motion to reconsider argues that the decision was legally wrong based on the record that already existed. You can sometimes file both. Choosing correctly matters, because each addresses a different problem with the original decision.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_long_do_I_have_to_file_a_motion_to_reopen\"><\/span>How long do I have to file a motion to reopen?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>For a USCIS decision, the deadline is generally 30 days from the decision, filed on Form I-290B. For an immigration court or Board of Immigration Appeals removal order, the general deadline is 90 days. These deadlines are strict, and there are limits on how many motions you can file. Certain exceptions can extend them, but acting quickly is the safest approach.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Can_I_reopen_a_case_after_the_deadline\"><\/span>Can I reopen a case after the deadline?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Sometimes, if an exception applies. For removal cases, a motion based on changed country conditions for asylum may not be subject to the usual time and number limits. In absentia orders and ineffective-assistance claims have their own rules, and the government may agree to a joint motion. These exceptions are narrow and technical, so confirm whether one fits before assuming a late motion is possible.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_is_an_in_absentia_removal_order\"><\/span>What is an in absentia removal order?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>An in absentia order is a removal order entered when you did not appear at your immigration court hearing. It has special reopening rules, for example if you did not receive proper notice or missed the hearing due to exceptional circumstances. The deadlines and requirements differ from ordinary motions. If you were ordered removed for missing a hearing, prompt legal advice is important.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Does_filing_a_motion_to_reopen_stop_my_removal\"><\/span>Does filing a motion to reopen stop my removal?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Not automatically. Filing a motion to reopen does not by itself stay, or pause, your removal in every case. You may need to request a stay of removal separately. Because the interaction between a motion and a removal order is time-sensitive and complex, it is important to act quickly and, ideally, with counsel who can request the appropriate protection.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_many_times_can_I_reopen_a_case\"><\/span>How many times can I reopen a case?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>There are limits. In removal proceedings, you are generally allowed one motion to reopen, subject to exceptions such as changed country conditions for asylum. USCIS motions also have constraints. Filing repeated or meritless motions is not a strategy. Because you often get one real chance, it is important to make the motion complete, timely, and well supported the first time.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Can_I_reopen_if_my_lawyer_made_a_serious_mistake\"><\/span>Can I reopen if my lawyer made a serious mistake?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Possibly, through a motion based on ineffective assistance of counsel. This requires meeting specific procedural steps, which generally include documenting the claim and notifying the former attorney of the allegation. The mistake must have affected the outcome. Because these requirements are strict, a motion of this kind should be prepared carefully, ideally with a new attorney experienced in these claims.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"conclusion\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Bottom_Line\"><\/span>Bottom Line<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>You can often reopen an immigration case, but the path depends on who decided it and the deadline. USCIS motions use Form I-290B within about 30 days; court removal orders generally allow 90 days. Reopen presents new facts, reconsider argues legal error, and narrow exceptions can extend some deadlines. Act fast, because timing usually controls. Each case depends on its own facts.<\/p>\n<p>If you received a denial or removal order, Atlas Legal Immigration Law can assess a motion to reopen.
