Record a request for evidence or a notice of intent to deny
Key facts
- Human involvement
- YellowClose supervision
- How AI is used
- From the request the lawyer has marked, record whether it asks for initial evidence or additional evidence, or states the bases of a proposed denial. Record that the request must give the deadline, that a request for evidence may not give more than twelve weeks, that a notice of intent to deny may not give more than thirty days, and that additional time may not be granted. Record that a response may be a complete response, a partial response with a request for a decision on the record, or a withdrawal, and that all requested materials are submitted together with the original request. Do not count the deadline into a calendar date. Do not draft the response.
- What the lawyer must review
- The lawyer decides how to respond. 8 C.F.R. § 103.2(b)(8) is the request-for-evidence and notice-of-intent-to-deny rule, including the twelve-week and thirty-day maximums and the bar on extra time. Paragraph (b)(11) is the response menu. Paragraph (b)(13) says a failure to respond by the required date may lead to a summary denial as abandoned, a denial on the record, or both. 8 C.F.R. § 214.1(f) is the separate duty of full and truthful disclosure. The tool does not draft the response and does not count a date.
