why???

I am sorry to hear this! Please don't feel bad and let your lawyer figure out a way

Will you please tell us why it was denied? And, who is the principal applicant? If your wife is the princepal applicant, you still have hope. But if you are the princepal and you don't have other status like H-1B now, then you need to figure out a way ASAP.

And, do please tell us the reason.
