Hi Guys. Congrats to all who have been approved and prayers for those of us who are still waiting.

We got an RFE dated April 29, 13 but was received on May 2, 2013. They were asking for more evidence of good faith marriage, however I think the fact that we moved at the end of our lease at the beginning of March and did a change of address is the reason for the RFE. We had sent in all we had including bills, photos of ourselves and the kids (my husband's step-kids) at our wedding and on vacation, bank statements and anything else we could find. We have nothing else to send except for all the new bills, paperwork, etc. that we got since we sent the package in November.

I guess we have to prove that we are still together (due to the change of address). So on May 13, 2013 we sent in all the new bills, emergency contact sheet for kids at school with hubby's name, new lease, car insurance, recent tax return and more bank statements (all the things we acquired since we sent the application in November 2012) along with a cover letter. The documents do show the new address.

I do hope this satisfies the questions they have. It has been such a stressful journey.

Please update the RFE and REF sent dates for me thanks.

Sophia.

Great that you checked good.gif Good information.

Funny, when I submitted in January 2013, Vermont was behind California. Wonder what happened.

I am with you bewildering, I asked earlier what the heck is going on with CSC, but I am not aware of any good reason. It makes absolutely no sense to me that VSC is 70% while CSC has only 6%, but CSC was ahead just few months ago. Oh well, I guess we just have to wait and try not to think about this.

I think CSC received about 500,000 DACA applications, it appears they have a higher priority and the President is behind it.

In Arizona its hot hot hot.

Hi all,

I did not sign up for SMS update and my case status online still says "Intial Review". I received my approval letter today. Date of decision was 5/14/13. Is it normal to get a letter first? It was stated in the letter that I should expect a new card within 60days.

I guess I am approved. No, the letter said "Congratulations! Your request ....has been approved. Go CSC.
