EB-1 I-140 denied

I've filed for the I-140 with EB-1 category in business, then additional evidence was requested and finally received a denial. I would like to know:
1. What are the chances to get approved after appealing?
2. If I were to appeal can I present new evidence?
3. After filing the appeal, how long should I expect to receive an answer from DC office?
4. If I ask for additional time before appealing, what are the chances that the additional time will be approved?
5. Is it better to appeal or to request a motion to reopen whenever I gather the new info to defend my case?
6. Do I have better chances if I skip both appealing and motion to reopen and focus on re filing a new case?

Thanks.
 
Could you please share your credentials or at least an overview of your credentials? Without knowing anything about your background, one cannot answer most of your questions.

2. You can present whatever your presented while responding to your RFE. Additional evidences may/may not be considered.
3. 6-8 weeks.

6. Yes. Especially if you think you have new evidence.

See some relevant decisions posted at the Administrative Appeals Office online.

Again, I'm not a lawyer - so please consider consulting/retaining one.
 
One of my coworker's wife actually works as a lawyer for that office in DC. He was telling that their full time job is to figure out how to deny an appeal. Having said that they are fairly objective. I have seen three cases so far where they have agreed with the applicant and have approved the I 140. I think it's worth a try.
