This is where this thread is going to confuse many. Getting an RFE for lack of evidence to prove you have met in the past two years almost always is due to a lack of primary evidence. Supplying more,

Not an RFE but it was sent back to my fiance. He forgot to sign on page. We double checked but somehow missed it. So triple check everything twice!lol

It was exactly six months for the RFE from NOA1, then its now been over a week since they received the paperwork for the RFE Reply. Silly omission of three words from the letter of Intent.

anyone know how long the TSC takes? I am assuming the paperwork is on someone's desk?

what omission did you leave out?

The three words ' Marry within 90 days' in the letters of intent. That HAS to be in both letters...

Hi,

I don't understand, some people on this forum talk about emails.

Where and how do you have those emails and see your change of status ?

Thanks for the person who will inform us.

When you send in your petition, you can send in a form G-1145 that gives them your email address and phone number so they can email and text you when there has been a change or update on your case. I don't know if you can do it after the fact somehow or not. As for seeing the change in your status, if you have received your NOA1 in the mail, it should have your case number in the letter. Go to uscis.gov and then click on tools, check your case status online and put in your case number. That will allow you to see your case status online.

04/23/2014- Mailed I-129F petition

04/24/2014- Arrived at Dallas lockbox

04/29/2014- Personal Check cashed, electronic NOA1: routed to Texas Service Center

05/01/2014- Received NOA1 hardcopy, Alien Registration # changed

08/08/2014- Text & email saying we were transferred to another center (from TSC to CSC)

09/22/2014- Received electronic NOA2 dated 9/19/2014

12/16/2014- Medical Exam

12/17/2014- Interview: APPROVED

01/17/2015- POE-Houston

03/07/2015- Got married!

03/26/2015- Mailed off Adjustment of Status, Employment Authorization Document & Advanced Parole

04/06/2015- Personal Check cashed, electronic NOA1 for all three

I received an RFE for not adding the Divorce decree for my first marriage. A detail I overlooked and later found out I needed. I have been waiting for the RFE and finally got it. I sent it 8/11/14 So I hope I get the NOA2 soon.

Just mailed our RFE back today to Texas. They wanted everything. :) Seems like everyone gets a response back in a week. Crossing our fingers.

Everything? You didn't mail most required documents? Check out the guides here so that you can save time on the rest of the process.

Good luck!

Just quick clarification: The G-1145 will alert you with the NOA1. If you want updates after that, you need to make an account on the USCIS website, then add your receipt number to that account :)

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".

 

September 26th 2016: I-751 package sent to CSC

September 28th 2016: Package delivered
September 30th 2016: Check cashed
October 3rd 2016: NOA1 received with receipt date of 09/28/16
November 3rd 2016: Biometrics received with appointment date of 11/14/16.
November 14th 2016: Attended biometrics appointment
October 30th 2017: Infopass appointment to get I-551 stamp
February 26th 2018: I-751 case number (aka the NOA1 receipt number) becomes trackable
March 14th 2018: Submitted service request due to being outside of processing time.

March 15th 2018: ROC approved. 535 days (1 year, 5 months and 17 days)

March 29th 2018: Card being produced

April 4th 2018: Card mailed out

April 6th 2018: Card in hand. Has incorrect "resident since" date. Submitted service request on I-751 case (typographical error on permanent resident card) and an I-90 online.

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.

August 8th 2018: Card in production thanks to the direct involvement of Senator Sherrod Brown's team

August 13th 2018: Card mailed

August 15th 2018: Card in hand with correct date. :joy:

October 31st 2018: Potomac sends out a notice stating they have closed out my I-90 per my request. Yay for no duplicate card drama.
