HI hy2934,

Your evidences look pretty much covered but it is just they might've sent you an RFE due to change of address. Looking at your case, It looks like USCIS is expecting a little more evidence pointing to your new address. Were your previous evidences having old address or new address?

You certainly can consider any evidence established prior to recieving RFE.

You can ask your parents to write an affidavit attesting your relation ( Noratized ).

Any bank statements from last submitted to the latest date.

You can file your taxes immediately and submit those transcripts

All relevant statements pointing to your new address. ( bank, Credit card, Utility).

if you have old address on your DL's, change it to new one and show that as a new evidence too.

I hope this should help you

Thank you,

Thanks immig1234 for replying. Well, its not really as straight forward for me. Back in first week of Feb, I realized that my lease was up on 20th Feb, and I had forgotten to look for the new place (I was expecting to move to a different office with same company). So, to avoid any issues with USCIS mail, I put the change of address to my in-law's house. However, a week later my landlord agreed to extend my lease on a month-to-month basis and I so I have been maintaining my existing lease (albeit on a monthly basis as mentioned above). Therefore, I haven't had to do any change of address on any official docs to my in-laws address (which is now the new mailing address for USCIS).

In this case, what should I do?

Hi all,

I just received an RFE in the mail couple of days ago. sad.png It was dated Feb 18th 2014. Interesting thing is that I truly believe it was somehow triggered by change of address I put in on Feb 6th 2014 (others in the past have also noted the same). Also it is very generic, usually people receive some sort of "personalized" RFE in the sense that it mentions what was submitted and what they need, but in my case, it is as generic as anything. However, whatever they request, I already submitted with my original packet including. Here is what I had sent:

Joint lease from last three years

Joint tax transcript (ordered from IRS website) from last two years

Our health insurance cards showing both names

Account snapshot of our Aetna website showing both of us using this insurance during our doc visits

Joint bank account transaction pages covering last two years

Letter from our bank stating when was my wife added to my account and that we have debit cards associated with that account

Copy of a joint loan application we signed back in late 2011

Joint auto insurance and renter insurance

Copy of our DLs showing same address

Some utility bills showing individual names but same address

Affidavits from friends/family

Pics and holiday cards addressed to both of us

Copies of the doc visit forms showing spouse as emergency contact

Now, other than the docs mentioned above, I have the following that I didn't send

Life insurance showing spouse as beneficiary (but we just got it a month ago; before RFE date though... should I even send it? or will it raise red flag?)

Call/text log showing awful lot of texts/calls between me and my wife

e-mail/chat logs (not sure how much weight it carries)

some more pics when my parents visited us back in October

some hospital bills to us individually but same address? same goes with pet clinic bills showing her name but same address?

******

We haven't filed the taxes yet for this year, I dont have 401K, we dont have a child, we dont have a mortgage, the cars are under my name only as her credit score was pretty bad

Any help is appreciated. I am attaching the RFE page with this post. Please take a look and advice fellow filers! sad.png

It is virtually a fact that applicants get at least an RFE and/or Interview if a change of address is filed the while case is pending. That was my experience, and also from people I've asked. Just send whatever you can, and hopefully you won't get another RFE. You should get an approval without interview (although an approval with an interview is not bad either except for the waste of time for both spouses).

Thanks sunnyCalifornian. I would've been fine with an interview but what I am dreading is that if they send us interview notice, they would probably send it at our old address in their system (like they did with RFE). As I mentioned I am lucky that I extended my lease till March end and I received RFE. But I can't afford to pay for two different leases any more than that

I agree, sometimes getting an interview is the best option. My opinion is always give them your current residence address, even if you change it more than one time while a case is pending. Change your address once you have physically moved to that address, maybe even a day after you've moved. Also, I believe that at an infopass appointment they can print notices for you that you didn't receive at your current address.

Yeah, I guess so. So have you received your gc yet? and did you say you received RFE during I751 or I-485 AOS?

I haven't been approved nor received RFE for I-751. I did receive two RFEs and an interview for I-485 (you can see the details in my signature part area.) We did relocate twice during I-485 therefore changed address twice.

Hello everyone.

Congratulations to all approvals and good luck to everyone who is still waiting.

I am also an October filer, sent my application to California Service Center on Sep. 30, received NOA1 dated 10/01, had my biometrics on 10/28. I know I'm a little late :) but can someone please add me to the list. Thanks.

It is almost 5 months waiting and I haven't heard anything yet. My online case status still says "Initial review" and it was last updated on Oct 1st. I start getting really nervous.
