Regarding RFE for K-1 Visa...

[Scott & LC 3]

Hello everyone

I was just wondering... we filed for K-1 Visa in June and we received the NOA1 on 24th June. So it's been 3 months now, the last time they touched our petition was 9th July and we haven't heard from the USCIS since. So I was wondering, how long does it take them to let you know about RFEs? 3 months have passed and we've got no news... so does that mean we've steered clear of RFEs? To those who have been issued RFEs, how long did it take for them to let you know?

Hope someone can shed some light on this

Thank you!

First a 'touch' doesn't necessarily mean someone is reviewing your file. Many folks only get 'touched' when their case is actually being reviewed - this is when the case is either Approved or an RFE issued (or denied but let's not go there). Hang tight - your time line has a possible adjudication date which is usually a very educated guess - RFE's and/or Approvals are sent right away when/if they occur.

Give it another couple of months. No news is good news. The only time you will get an RFE is if your application is incomplete, and you usually get those right away. When your fiance sends the petition to the USCIS, it is first looked for completeness and then the RFE is sent. No RFE just means that you're still waiting for your fiance's agency check to be completed and that can take anywhere from 3 to 6 months. Good luck!

Yeah, we were touched i think only twice before our NOA 2. So it doesen't mean that you'll get an RFE, they'll let you know just in time, and they will also let you know, why they gave it to you and what they need... So I would say, you guys are totally fine, and you don't have to worry about REF's...

Best of Luck

Thank you so much, you guys I really appreciate it. Yeah, I've been looking at the dates for which we night get NOA2, and it seems to go further and further away! sigh... but I guess all we could do now is to wait.

Thank you again

Here is the master timeline list which goes back to 2006 here on VJ so you can see how many received RFE's and at what point. I hope this helps.....GOOD LUCK!

Typically, I imagined that they would send RFE's right away. But we were touched July 9th and now we get an RFE on Oct 15 But I'm sure it's nothing major. You all should be getting approved any day now
