A Motion to Reopen is a formal application to the concerned immigration authority to have a case re-evaluated due to new evidence, changed circumstances, or errors in the original proceedings. This motion can be filed after an immigration authority or court decision has been made and it allows individuals to present additional facts that may impact their case outcome.
