Manoj.N Posted July 8, 2019 Report Share Posted July 8, 2019 (edited) After issuing 221g, Chennai consulate has denied my visa (H1B extension stamping) and forwarded the case to USCIS for review. I am yet to receive a reply from USCIS whereas the section mentioned in the consular reply is worrisome. Quote If USCIS revokes the petition, the beneficiary may become ineligible for a visa under Immigration and Nationality Act Section 212(a)(6)(C)(i) (or other appropriate section). Does the 212(a)(6)(C)(i) section means, I am inadmissible for life to the USA if USCIS revokes it? Thanks in advance. Edited July 8, 2019 by Manoj.N Quote Link to comment

gopalakrishnach Posted July 9, 2019 Report Share Posted July 9, 2019 I may be wrong but I guess in future you can apply new H1B and come back to USA. Quote Link to comment
Manoj.N Posted July 10, 2019 Author Report Share Posted July 10, 2019 Thank you @gopalakrishnachand @shekar11# But when I google search the section most of the blogs says inadmissible for life and that's why I am more worried. Also, if USCIS doesn't send NOIR what are the next steps I should take? Quote Link to comment

That original line is boilerplate, meaning that depending on the individual situation, a person may fall under that section of the law OR some other section. It says "or other appropriate section." The section of the law you mention would only apply if you misrepresented a material fact. Edited July 10, 2019 by JoeF Quote Link to comment

sincity Posted July 16, 2019 Report Share Posted July 16, 2019 Had received that a while back. Your employer can contest it and USCIC re-approved in my case. Then again back to consulate and got it stamped. As long as case is good and your employer stands by you it will be all fine. Quote Link to comment
Traws Posted August 25, 2019 Report Share Posted August 25, 2019 @sincity how long it took for USCIS to approve. Did you also received NOIR. Quote Link to comment
