My petition for my stepson got approved 2/27/13. So happy for that! I thought that my husband's petition will be the day after since my stepson's petition was approved late in the day. But it didn't come yesterday Friday. Anyway, hoping I'll get his approval early next week. I hope there is no problem with it since USCIS approved his son's anyway and their priority date is 2/28/13.. anyone here on VJ with the same issue? Just wondering... But yeah, got 1 approval out of 2!!!

Pls help me. The USCIS sent us this but we do not know what evidence they want. or we should wait for the mail.

On December 4, 2013, we mailed a notice requesting additional evidence or information in this case I130 IMMIGRANT PETITION FOR RELATIVE, FIANCE(E), OR ORPHAN. Please follow the instructions on the notice to submit the requested information. This case will be in suspense until we receive the evidence or the opportunity to submit it expires. Once we receive the requested evidence or information and make a decision on the case, you will be notified by mail.

A request for evidence is made when an application/petition is lacking required documentation/evidence (initial evidence) or the officer needs more documentation/evidence (additional evidence) to determine an applicant's eligibility for the benefit sought. We may send you a request for evidence at any stage of our review. The request will indicate what evidence or information is needed for us to fully evaluate your application or petition. The notice will explain where to send the evidence and will give the deadline for your response. Your application or petition will be held in suspense during that time. If you receive a request for evidence and have questions about what you need to submit, you may call our National Customer Service Center at 1-800-375-5283.

I do not know if they touched our files bec our congressman sent them a letter and they replied back to the congressman. The following day we received this message. My husband checked his mail box but nothing yet. Maybe 2 more days before he can receive it. We waited for 10 months then we got this RFE. But my husband and friends here always give me hope. Thanks so much I will update what evidence do they need and the result after sending the evidence they need. Have a great day and god bless to all my VJ friends. smile.png
