[wanderingbeing 0]

Is this bad? What does this mean exactly? Just got this update through the USCIS website.

Application Type: I485, APPLICATION TO REGISTER PERMANENT RESIDENCE OR TO ADJUST STATUS

Current Status: REQUEST FOR INITIAL EVIDENCE SENT, CASE PLACED ON HOLD

On September 3, 2008, we mailed a notice requesting initial evidence in this case. Please follow the instructions on the notice to submit the evidence requested. Meanwhile, processing of this case is on hold until we either receive the evidence or the opportunity to submit it expires. Once you submit the evidence requested and a decision is made, you will be notified by mail. If you move while this case is pending, please use our Change of Address online tool to update your mailing address.

It means you submission was missing something critical. When you receive the actual notice, you'll know what was missing and how to respond.

Yeah, I would just say sit tight until you get that letter so you can determine what they need, send in what they want and you should be OK.

You will receive a letter in the mail telling you exactly what you need to submit, or re-submit. We had to send another copy of the medical report because the doctor used the old form and didn't have the correct page for immunizations. It could be anything. Don't worry......yet.

Thank you "Larry" and "Brian and Isa", I hope it is something simple. Because I know I sent in everything that was required. :s

Often they will send a request for something you already sent (for whatever reason). It happened to us a couple times. If that turns out to be the case, just send them another copy of whatever it is...

It also happened to me ... they asked for a W-2s that , I`m 100% sure, we have already sent them with all documents. But oh well, I`m glad that`s all they asked for ... Hope I won`t see any more of RFE letters!
