USCIS Policy Change Concerning the Issuance of ‘Request for Evidence’ and ‘Notice of Intent to Deny’

According to a USCIS Policy Memorandum, beginning September 11, 2018, it will be easier for officers to deny applications without asking for further evidence or a chance to argue against their denial which they previously did with a Request for Evidence (RFE) or a Notice of Intent to Deny (NOID). E, L, and H type visa as well as greencard applications filed after September 11, 2018 will be most affected.
