Re: upgrading oth

You may have some options; however, I need to know more details to better assess the situation.

Feel free to contact me if you would like to set up an initial consultation, free of charge. If we set up an appointment, I'd be happy to initiate the call in order to save you in long distance charges.

You have missed the statutory 15 year deadline.

However, there are a very few times when the Board for Correction of Records might grant relief.

One of the significant questions you will have to answer is why it took so long to apply.

Sincerely.

I think that you have missed the SOL in this case by five years. Assuming that you have good cause for missing the SOL, the question becomes what new evidence do you have to overcome the decision below. Good Luck!
