I filed my own national interest waiver petition, but it was denied. What is the likelihood that my new petition will be approved?
This is a good question. On one hand, the CIS Service Center will be reviewing your case with full knowledge that your prior case has already been denied. (The examiner will know about the prior denial because you have to disclose it on the form you submit with the new petition.) On the other hand, there may be different circumstances, better evidence, better preparation, etc. that could make your new petition more likely to be approved this time even though it was denied last time. It depends on the facts and circumstances of your particular case and whether the second CIS examiner believes you qualify now even though a different examiner felt you did not qualify before.
