I don't think there is any guarantee that you will not receive an RFE, up until you are approved.

Hopefully, you won't get any RFE's and you will be approved soon.

Good luck.

Absolutely not .... I had my biometrics without an RFE ... Then was transfered to CSC, then many touches and two days ago I received an email that CSC was sending out a RFE ...

I think when your application arrives at Chicago lockbox and then off to MSC they look for the common things that might be missing from your application ... Once an officer at your service center sits down and goes through your file in detail they may find additional items missing (or they feel is missing) ...

Nope.

The biometrics are done independently of any RFE. They just schedule the appointment asap, and RFEs can come at any time.

Good luck though!
