Sigh... thanks ladies!

I hope it's something simple too! My heart just sank when I saw the email notification and it didn't say approved. I know I should be happy I have heard something but I'm in tears. Like everyone here I just want this to be OVER and here's yet another delay :(

You have every right to be upset right now - I would be a complete wreck (major points to you for even being able to type right now!)!

It's ridiculous to have a third party, a government agency, issue a statement that essentially says "you didn't give us enough proof of your marriage, so we're going to need you to jump through more hoops".

Although it's probably more like "ummm, like, when we sent your petition packet to California, we like, asked our intern to put it in the envelope and stuff, and like, he totally dropped it in a mud puddle outside the office so like, ALL your paperwork got wet! And we like, didn't want to send it to California all wet and soggy, so we like, threw it in the garbage. Soooo, could you, like, send it again? Kthanks lolz!"

Do you know if anyone in other threads had success with Tier 2 agents in finding out what the RFE is for before you receive the notice in the mail (it could save you a couple days)? smile.png

Thanks... that made me smile smile.png

I do know that my hubby forgot to sign the second page of his G-325. I hope that that is all that is required!

I'm a complete novice when it comes to these kinds of forums and threads. Where would I even look for something like that? It's hard to say what exactly they are missing...

Oh, sweetie... *HUGS*

DO NOT RESPOND TO THIS E-MAIL ***

The last processing action taken on your case

Application Type: I130 , IMMIGRANT PETITION FOR RELATIVE, FIANCE(E), OR ORPHAN

Your Case Status: Request for Evidence

On March 11, 2014, 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. If you move while this case is pending, please use our Change of Address online tool to update your case with your new address or call our customer service center at 1-800-375-5283.

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
