70 days from RFE

[madison925 2]

So, it's been 70 days since they received our RFE response, we put in a service request and received an email last Thursday about VSC receiving it, still now news up to now. Should I be worried? Is there anything I can do you can all suggest?

You can get another info pass since its been 2 months since your service request. Or you can involve your senator. Doesn't hurt to try.

Just hang in there!

God bless you!!!

Its been more than 60 days on the RFE. USCIS says they will process the RFE within 60 days. I would call USCIS and tell them its been 70 days and you want to speak to tier 2. They should have some information. If you don't get an answer in 2 or 3 weeks call back and tell them you want to speak to an immigration officer. We received an RFE and we never heard that our application was approved until NVC sent us a letter that saying that they had received our approved application and it was being forwarded to the embassy. To this day the USCIS still cannot tell us if we were approved and we have not received an NOA2, so their computer systems and communication are very bad. The USCIS case status check is also not working for a lot of people. Hope that helps.

Like said they have 60 days after receiving your response to the RFE to complete the process, before that time you can do nothing, after that time you can do as you are doing; putting in the service request. I would do as others have suggested and start making phone calls as well, requesting a tier 2 for sure.

Stay vigilant!

we tried contacting our congressman but the officer who contacted seemed so negative about it. She said, that they're doing background checks because i am from the Philippines and she didnt even call them yet, she was just making an assumption and she wants us to believe her that it's not good to call. I believe she's just lazt to do her job. Doesn't make sense. Edited June 27, 2013 by madison925

Wow!! So what's up now? How are you dealing with the case? Since you are approved but Uscis doesnt know it?

Well we got our new case number for the manila embassy from the NVC. As soon as you get that you can go to US Dept. of State Consular Electronic Application Center (CEAC) https://ceac.state.gov/CEACStatTracker/Status.aspx?eQs=o/iS8zDpeAKjMWCuebHqOw== and track application status. Our status says "ready" at embassy, so as soon as we get all ready my fiancee and set up an interview date. All of the proper forms and instructions needed for medical and the interview are available from the manila embassy website. We are currently gathering all that is needed for the interview and paying fees and such. I still need to call back USCIS, because i understand we will need a copy of the NOA2 for the adjustment of status later.

Just hang in there with the RFE and when you call they mainly read you the info directly for the website (wait times, instructions, ect.) Tell the person you want to speak to a Teir 2, if you dont get a good answer from them, ask to to higher.
