Hi guys!!

We just got a letter today from USCIS that our case was transfered to California!! so it means, no Interview!!! Yeahh :dance::dance:

Now I have a question, we were expecting an RFE because of the affidavit, well,our co-sponsor requested extesion to file taxes for 2008, so we just sent the W-2 for 2008 along with 2006 and 2007 tax returns...so we are expecting a RFE becuase of that, hopefully not..

now since our case was Transfered to California, do we still have a chance to get an RFE or it means that the case will be approved soon?

I mean, if we were supposed to get an RFE, shouldn't we get before they transfer it to california??

Thanks guys!!!

I believe you are correct that you shouldn't get an interview. I don't think you are out of the woods though for a RFE. It maybe somewhat looked at before being transferred, but I'm not sure how indepth the go into it.

From reading on VJ, you can get an RFE at any step until it's approved. If you were past getting RFE's then they would have looked at your case and made a decision. At least that's what I think.

You are closer to being approved!! Congrats on the transfer.

Shelly :)

Hey Shelly. Did you get your RFE yet?

We did receive the RFE letter May 15. It took an entire week to get to us in the mail! :angry:

It was for the I 864. They claimed they didn't have my 2008 tax return. It's odd because they didn't say they needed Jason's and we filed jointly in 2008 because we were married. So we printed off all of our 2008 tax stuff and the 864, wrote a new cover letter and mailed it Sat. morning. It should be there by now.

I'm hoping that it will get worked on by the end of the week maybe. Somewhat frustrated, but at least it was an easy fix.

Now back to the waiting.

At least it was fixable :) and all done now :) I still didn`t get any updates on my case since they`d resumed the case. Curious when we`ll hear something from them.... It`s been 2 weeks.

That stinks! I wonder if it has anything to do with our current visa's being something besides a K1. I hope you hear something soon!

We checked online tracking our RFE letter was signed for yesterday so it should at least get opened today, but who knows how long it will sit on someone's desk before it gets looked at again.
