Sorry to hear about your RFE. I am pretty sure I've read of others who have called Tier 2 and found out the nature of the RFE over the phone. Can anyone confirm this please? I would try again in a day or two and ask for an update. Or email the service center where you case is directly!

Congrats all! And those of you who haven't got their approvals yet (especially Austin, who's working so hard on our spreadsheet!) good luck tomorrow!

Thanks nightingalejules! I didn't receive the approval email today. OUCH! :ranting:

However, four Oct filers got the approval emails from NSC this week so I'm optimistic about my chances next week. I hope to see lots of approval emails next week for everyone here. Come on NSC! Don't make me call you Neveraska! LOL! :star:

Meanwhile, I'm reading http://www.visajourney.com/wiki/index.php/NVC_Process to get ready for the NVC stage. It's still cold in Canada. I want to move to the U.S. ASAP! LOL! :dance:

Ooh, that's my PD, transfer date and new service center. But no movement for me today unless it updates later.

ROC from CR-1 visa (Green Card expiration date was Nov 24th 2016)

 

Link to the evidence I submitted. Be sure to send evidence spanning your entire marriage (especially for K-1) or as far back as you can. Just one or two bank statements will not cut it. I primarily focused on the two years of living here since I came in on a CR-1. If you don't have the fundamentals (i.e. joint accounts/policies), you can explain why in the covering letter. E.g. "While we do not have joint utilities, we both contribute to them from our joint bank account".

April 2018 - August 7th 2018: Tons of service requests, emails and now senator involvement to get my corrected green card back because what the heck, USCIS. Also some time in May I sent a letter to Potomac telling them I want to withdraw my I-90 since CSC were handling it.
