EB-1A Denials, Refilings, and Appeals: Real-Time Data & Strategies from Former USCIS Attorneys
Did you recently receive a denial on your EB-1A petition and aren’t sure what to do next?
As denials continue to rise and adjudication standards become increasingly inconsistent, understanding how USCIS is evaluating EB-1A petitions in today’s environment has never been more important.
In this special webinar event, Lawfully will share it's exclusive real-time data on EB-1A approval trends through March 2026—data USCIS has not publicly released.
The session will be led by Melissa Warburton and Kristin Whitaker, both former Associate Counsels at USCIS and now Partners at immigration law firm Whitaker & Warburton.
Drawing from decades of hands-on experience at USCIS, Melissa and Kristin will share practical insights into what USCIS is looking for in today’s environment and how to develop a strategy for refiling, appealing, or seeking alternative visa pathways following an EB-1A denial.
Here’s what’s on the agenda for this webinar:
→ Reviewing Lawfully’s exclusive 2026 EB-1A approval data
→ Understanding the current USCIS adjudication landscape and the trends driving increased denials
→ Exploring effective EB-1A refiling and appeal strategies
→ Live Q&A covering attendee-submitted and chat questions.
