Know which appeals are still inside the 30-day window
Prospective clients answer whether the decision came from an immigration judge or the BIA, how many days remain on the appeal clock, and whether the case is still inside the U.S. immigration system — then upload the written decision so you see the timeline before offering a consultation.

The questions your team needs answered
Every immigration appeals bia and federal intake asks these — and why each one matters.
| Question | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| Are you appealing (or do you want to appeal) a decision in an immigration case, such as a removal/deportation order, asylum denial, or another immigration judge decision? | Confirms there's an actual appealable decision rather than a general immigration question outside this practice area. |
| Was the decision made by an immigration judge or the Board of Immigration Appeals (BIA)? | Identifies whether the case goes to the BIA or federal circuit court, which changes the filing forum and required strategy. |
| Has it been 30 days or less since the decision you want to appeal (or since the BIA decision if you want to go to federal court)? | The 30-day window is often jurisdictional, so this answer determines whether the appeal is still viable at all. |
| Do you have a written decision or notice with the date on it (or can you get it quickly)? | A dated written decision is needed to calculate the real deadline and confirm the case details before intake. |
| Is your case currently in the United States immigration system (not only a visa application at a U.S. consulate outside the U.S.)? | Rules out consular visa refusals abroad, which fall outside BIA and federal appeals jurisdiction entirely. |
| Are you the person in the immigration case, or an immediate family member/legal representative helping that person? | Distinguishes the actual respondent or an authorized family member/representative from an unrelated inquiry. |
| Is there an upcoming deadline or hearing date in your case within the next 30 days? | Surfaces cases with a hearing or filing deadline inside 30 days as time-sensitive even outside the appeal-specific clock. |

Built for immigration appeals bia and federal workflows
| Cliont capability | Immigration Appeals BIA And Federal application |
|---|---|
| Deadline-aware urgency scoring | Combines the 30-day-since-decision answer with the upcoming-hearing-or-deadline question so leads still inside their filing window are ranked above ones where the appeal clock has likely expired. |
| Document upload at intake | Prompts for the written decision or notice referenced in the catalog so you can verify the decision date and issuing body before the first call instead of chasing paperwork afterward. |
| Venue and forum screening | Uses the immigration-judge-or-BIA and U.S.-system questions to route out consular visa refusals and non-appeal matters that don't fit a BIA or federal appeals practice. |
| Authorized-submitter check | Captures whether the person filling out the intake is the respondent or an immediate family member/legal representative, so intake from an unrelated party is flagged before it reaches your CRM. |
Common immigration appeals bia and federal lead scenarios
Fresh BIA denial, clock running
The written decision is dated within the last two weeks and a federal court filing deadline sits inside the 30-day window, so the intake flags it for immediate review before the deadline lapses.
Family filing for a detained relative
A sibling or spouse submits the intake on behalf of the person in proceedings, confirming they're an immediate family member helping the actual respondent rather than an unrelated third party.
Decision is well past 30 days
The intake answers show the removal order or BIA decision was issued months ago with no written notice on hand, signaling the appeal window has likely closed before the firm spends time on it.
Consular denial, not a BIA matter
The prospective client is contesting a visa refusal from a U.S. consulate abroad rather than a case pending in the U.S. immigration system, which the intake surfaces as a mismatch for this practice area.
Hearing scheduled inside 30 days
No appeal has been filed yet, but an immigration court hearing is coming up within the month, so the intake marks it time-sensitive even though the appeal itself hasn't started.

Immigration Appeals BIA and Federal lead-intake FAQs
How does the intake separate a BIA appeal from a federal circuit court petition?
The intake asks whether the decision came from an immigration judge or the BIA and whether the 30-day clock is measured from that decision or from a later BIA ruling, so you can see which forum and deadline apply before you respond.
What happens if the prospective client doesn't have the written decision yet?
They can indicate they can get it quickly rather than uploading it immediately, but a missing decision notice with no date lowers confidence in the timeline, since the appeal deadline can't be confirmed without it.
Can someone submit this intake on behalf of a relative in removal proceedings?
Yes — the catalog asks whether the submitter is the person in the case or an immediate family member/legal representative, so filings from a spouse or parent are captured and distinguished from unrelated third-party inquiries.
Does the intake catch cases that aren't actually inside the U.S. immigration system?
Yes, one question specifically checks whether the case is pending in the U.S. system rather than a consular visa denial abroad, which flags a mismatch since consular refusals don't go through BIA or federal appeal.
How is urgency calculated when there's a hearing but no appeal filed yet?
An upcoming hearing or deadline within 30 days is scored as urgent on its own, separate from the appeal-deadline questions, so time-sensitive matters surface even before an appeal has technically started.
What if the decision was issued by USCIS rather than an immigration judge or the BIA?
The catalog specifically asks whether the decision came from an immigration judge or the BIA, so a USCIS denial (like an I-130 or I-140 decision) would answer no and score lower for this appeals intake.
