Thank you very much for the warm welcome. The RFE did arrive but not to me, they mailed it to my attorney. I didn't include the medical from the civil surgeon when the whole packet was mailed out, so they requested for that which my attorney already sent that to them and they received it yesterday. Also they requested for the most recent tax documents from my wife which would be for the year 2011. But being that we want to file "Married Filling Jointly" and that will require me to have either an SSN or an ITIN # which I don't have none right now, we couldn't file electronically yesterday with H&R Block, but somehow they referred us to their regional branch where they have a tax accountant than can sign off the W-7 form for me tomorrow and then process it. After which I will then send out all the tax documents that is needed no later than Tuesday.

P.S: My case status online now says (Request for Evidence Response Review). *On April 12, 2012, we received your response to our request for evidence.

Thank you everyone and I hope you have a good evening!

That is strange, not sure they mean 2011 when they say "most recent tax returns". Not only are you not required by law to have filed those taxes just yet, millions file extensions until July.

12/24/2010 I proposed. She accepted and stayed.

02/25/2011 Married!

03/19/2012 FINALLY submitted the AOS paperwork: I-130, I-485, I-765, etc.

03/23/2012 Received notification that USCIS has received everything.

03/26/2012 Biometrics Appointment Notice: April 23, 2012.

04/02/2012 NOA's received. Now we wait...

04/23/2012 Biometrics completed.

05/18/2012 EAD card mailed but not yet received.

06/06/2012 Rough interview but we think we're approved! Website says i485 status "Card Production".

06/12/2012 We received the "Welcome the United States" letters! Website says Green Card was mailed.

LIMBO: Green card lost in mail. Facing the possibility of paying hundreds in fees and basically repeating the entire process.

All good now! USPS lost it, then found it.

04/24/14 Back to VJ to get help with I-751, Removal of Conditions.

05/31/14 Mailed I-751 finally, with less than a week to deadline!

06/02/14 NOA1 (that was fast!)

07/01/14 Biometrics

7/25/14 Approved for Removal of Conditions

Wasn't it you arguing with me about this a few days ago?

I wasn't arguing I was saying the same thing and saying it then based on several cases that have not been required the 2011 report. I read on here a LoT and this is the first time I have seen someone say they were asked for 2011...and even is this case that may not have been the basis of the RFe...there may have been something missing or not rig with the 2010 copy or they simply misplaced it which has happened.

July 2005 - met my awesome, hot, amazing love in Lousiana.
