I129-F Part C Question 3 - Possible RFE?

I'm a Feb 2013 filer of K1. I have been reading the master RFE list and one thing I found out yesterday is that on the form I-129F on Part C, Question #3, everyone who has not checked any boxes seem to be getting an RFE for this.

Here's the question.

If you have provided information about a conviction for a crime listed above and you were being battered or subjected to extreme cruelty by your spouse, parent, or adult child at the time of your conviction, check all that apply to you

(1) I was acting in self-defense

(2) I violated a protection order issue for my own protection

(3) I committed, was arrested for, was convicted of, or plead guilty of committing a crime that did not result in serious bodily injury, and there was a connection between the crime committed and my having been battered or subjected to extreme cruelty

Since none of this applied to me, I didn't check any boxes. It does say check all the apply. How can they send an RFE for something like this? This will create unnecessary delay.

I didn't need to check any boxes and merely followed the Example Forms.

Now, that being said, USCIS has access to records about you that even you don't know about. You would get an RFE if you didn't check anything but they found something in your past that made them suspect that you should have checked something.

So did I :)

Anyway, based on one response above, I think we may be ok. Fingers crossed :)

I know that I had no RFE but I put n/a or non on everyline that didn't apply. DIdn't leave one out because you can get an RFE if not since there is no answer they can assume there is an answer and wasn't placed. So I guess it worked for me.

I second this. If there is something that doesn't apply to you like minor children..etc. always put NONE or N/A on that line so there isn't anything that can be misinterupted on the applications and forms.
