Request for aditional evidence

[ARIANNA 0]

On July 16 we were sent a request for aditional evidence.

They just needed his divorce papers that he missed sending, he sent it back exactly 1 week later but we don't know if they recieved it. There is no change on our status online and no word from them.

Should we have heard from them?

Should there be a decision by now?

I am getting concerned about this. My concern is that they haven't recieved it and we are just sitting here wasting time.

My RFE took 2 months to resolve. It doesnt matter what they needed as far as time. It just makes the case sit & wait until they get your info & have time to re-open the case.

Did you send it back using some sort of trackable system? Return receipt, etc? It is always a good idea to send anything to USCIS or the Consulates using a method that has a tracking number. They are notorious for not acknowledging the receipt of mail and often your tracking receipt is the only way you know they received it.

No he didn't. How could we know if they recieved it then? Should we call? Or wait and be patient?

well maybe you could try calling them. Or you could just wait and be patient. Either way it's gonna come down to waiting and being patient. An RFE definitely extends the waiting process.

Good luck.

If you are worried call, they will atleast be able to tell you if they have received anything from you.

So basically mine was pushed to the side until they have time to review it again. Right?

Could anyone give me ideas on waiting period? Maybe from experience, so far one here says took 2 months more.

This post by a former adjuticator explains the RFE process pretty simply. The put the file aside until you send back what they need. Once it's back, they process it. We know by reading here that some cases take longer than others... probably has to do with when the adjuticator that has your case sets time to go over their RFE's. Some seem to do it much quicker than others.

There is an RFE option when you call USCIS.. try it.
