You can only make further adjustments to the information you initially adjusted by the later of:

Appeals

90 days from the date we notify you of a decision we made

You have 90 days from the date we notify you of a decision we made about your form to submit an appeal (for example, if we deem your form ineligible or we deny your adjustment request).

You may submit an appeal for a missed deadline if you had exceptional circumstances that prevented you from meeting the deadline. We may accept your form or adjustment after the deadline depending on when the event occurred.
