So, just saw that my US Visa has been refused. Pretty standard 3 year extension on my i140. Same employer for the last 9 years. What are my options? Anyone been through something similar?

Where did you see it’s been refused? Are you referring to visa stamping process? I have heard that they change the status to refused even when they’re doing some additional processing, so I wouldn’t worry too much about it, the status will change in a few days. Or if there’s something they’ll email you asking to submit more documents or things like that. Or are you referring to the visa extension application here in the US? If this is what you meant, the immigration team should be able to guide you and let me know the next steps.

Refused is just a phase before it goes to approved. Wait for couple days

Following I am curios, it’s a very smooth process if the employer is same for 9 years

Wait for official notice, most likely looking for a document

OP what happened after that?

The status changed from Refused to Approved (in about a week) and then to Issued (in a day) without me having to do anything on my end.
