Hi again,

I was just wondering how long USCIS gives you to return info for an RFE. We have been waiting since October 19th for it to arrive and still have gotten nothing in the mail.

I just don't want the case to be deemed as "abandoned" because we didn't receive the RFE. Online it says to call them if 30 days have passed and we have not received anything. I am just wondering how long we have to respond and if I should call now about it not being delivered or just wait for the 30 days.

Also, has anyone ever had this problem with the mail? Hicham's name is in the mailbox and he has received 3/6 letter from USCIS so far. 2 have are "undeliverable" by the post office. Do you think an infopass appointment would be better than calling? Will they be able to tell me what it is for if we go to an office? I'm debating making an appointment because it's about an 8 hour drive for the whole trip and I don't want to go for nothing...

Thanks for any advice or info!

Sarah

Our RFE says 87 days, as well. You should have plenty of time, though, even if you have to call them after 30 days.

Conditions Removed! Ten-year green card received 6/24/2009. No more USCIS for a very long time.

I'm pretty sure my RFE letter said 87 days...not 4 months.

Sorry... did not realize I hit the 4 and not the 3...... My mistake

Do you have ur name on the mail box or your p.o box? if you don't then, I think you should inquire from your postman or post office, After 2 weeks of waiting for mine, the online status changed saying that it has been returned as undeliverable, I've been trying to get them to resend it since sept 13 but no luck yet.

May be you should talk to your mail man or post office, it may just be lying there waiting to be returned.

08/02 mailed AOS and EAD, 08/15 recieved bio appointment for 08/22

09/13 AOS status, notice returned undelivered on 09/05, Called 800 line to change mailing address to P.O. Box

11/18 recived another notice for 11/03 call to customer service saying notice sent to me on 08/18 was undeliverable(wasn't that the reason I called!!!)

11/27 3rd infopass for to resend RFE this time meet a nice lady that sent an e-mail to MSC to resend RFE

11/28 Sent evidence for I864 since it seems to be the most common RFE

12/01 e-mail and status RFE finally resent

12/05 status online response to RFE recieved(means RFE was for I864)

12/06, 12/08 AOS touched

We have our names in the mailbox. We have received half of the letters that were sent to us. I called the post office and they said there is nothing we can do. Thanks USPS!

Ok I'm going to make an infopass appt. for next week cause I have a feeling we're never going to get it if we haven't yet...

thanks guys!
