Send it along with the original of the RFE (keep a copy for yourself) to the address on the RFE. Follow the instructions exactly or else it may not end up with the rest of your file. Also send it delivery confirmation.

The RFE notice will need to be outside of the medical envelope. Take it back to the DR's office and ask them to please take out the RFE notice and re-seal the medical envelope.

I really don't think it would be advisable for you to send it anywhere someone on here tells you for two reasons:

1. Your case may be at a different center for processing (ie CSC instead of NBC)

2. They will need to see the RFE notice to match it with your file - they may need to leave the medical sealed, so how will THEY get to the RFE notice any better than you?

so they do not open the envelope? I was under the vision that my file stayed in chicago until they receive all paper work its filed and then all forwared on to local. That seems a little backwards.

RFEs may be issued at several points in the process, at NBC during initial processing, at CSC when an adjudicator gets to your case, or at your local office when and adjudicator gets to your case - any time. So, it is very important that you get the notice removed from the medical by the CS (so they can seal it up again) so that you can correctly respond.

If you don't want to do that, then I don't think I can help you any further.

Are you saying the you gave the doctor the orignal RFE document, and the doctor sealed it in the envelope along with the other documents? If so I would go back to the doctor have him take out the RFE document, and reseal the envelope, as your taking a big risk that you will send to the wrong place, and it could delay your processing, or worse it never get where it needs to go, and you AOS is denied due to not responding in time.

Yep you need to send it to where ever the RFE states to send it. This is where your case file is and where they are expecting to receive it at. With hundreds of cases being received at the lock box daily do you really thing some clerk is going to take the time to research your case (if they even have the ability) and forward the medical to the correct location?

Since you already had your interview scheduled (and I hope you went) your case is most certainly not still at the original location. The RFE needs to go exactly where it says to mail it.

BTW did you go to the interview?
