My exceptional hardship application was denied by USCIS. Can I ask for reconsideration?

Yes. Requests to reopen an exceptional hardship application are made through the USCIS. If USCIS determines the new information warrants a reopening of the case, USCIS will forward a new Form I-612 application to the Department of State for its consideration.
