Ok, just to reassure all of you. If you've already been issued a RFE, they will NOT issue you another (different) RFE. Unless the RFE response you sent in is incorrect, you're golden. We confirmed this with two operators since our case complete took so long and I was getting worried.

They will NOT RFE you for not writing your case number on the documents. Seriously, you guys need to chill the eff down. :P It's recommended so that the pages don't get separated. Like I said, we didn't put it on top of anything else apart from the I864 and the DS230 form. For other documents, you can write it in pencil or use a post-it note. But the barcoded cover sheet should be enough.

I couldn't help myself. I had to call and speak with an operator with our case status. She says that all they are waiting for is the DS-230 and docs.

At least I know that there aren't any problems prior to DS-230 and docs. :dance:

But. But. I dun wanna chill the eff down.

I want it to be over on Friday. Then, as soon as that SIF comes, I promise to relax.

I've organized the evidence we have. There's nothing more to add. Only the phone card record and bank account to update the day before the interview. He can do that himself.

The interview will be fine. We'll keep going over dates and places, but that's not a problem.

I think someone even suggested - our docs will be over the ocean! What if.. what if!!! There is no relaxing TheBears. There isnt.

Alicia!!! No! If we think like that, we're all gonna :wacko: ... if we aren't already. After CC, our documents will be fine. They'll make it to the Embassy and we're all getting May interviews. Like.... May 5th. A few of us (Sachi, Vivek, Tharnsur, all the early CCers) will be worked in at the end of April because, gosh darn it, they deserve it.

I just want that interview letter. Tell me I'm missing everything. Birth certificates. Marriage certificate. AOS. IV. Whatever. I've got another set of originals and copies to bring to the interview. Just give me an interview already! :angry:

I feel like we're going to see each other in therapy...."I'm been dreaming that I'm being chased by immigration forms...They keep yelling "complete me"".....

I agree with you, once we get LIF's we'll start freaking out about the next step... I think I'm going to go completely grey before the interview...Can I get a reimbursement for coloring my hair from NVC? :bonk:
