The RFE Master List

[Pennycat 880]

Checked my status online and saw that I had a RFE coming...was worried it was going to be something major. When I received the RFE I was both mad and relieved I didn't review well enough my submission and made two dumb mistakes...forgot to check item 15 "has your fiancé ever been in the US"...it is right in the middle of a bunch of stuff that didn't apply & she left the employment space blank on the G325A because she hasn't worked yet. Two things easily taken care of. Researched and found that I don't need her to send me a signed G325A back...I can just fix it and label it as she will sign during the interview. That saves a week and about $75 for shipping.

Eeeeps. I just got the photocopy of what I sent in and I saw that I skipped that one too. RFE for us I double and triple checked this thing, too.

We got RFE asking for evidence from me (beneficiary) that I plan to marry within 90 days of admission to the US. Further in the letter clarified that the evidence may be a statement, wedding preparations or other evidence that clearly establishes the intent to marry. Easy!

Sorry you made the mistake too...it is so easy to miss that little box. Well no problems with sending back the G325A unsigned...I just sent the Memorandum stating this and also added a note to make sure it was very clear. We are at NVC awaiting processing to the Embassy.

What are the reasons for RFE?

[ChasUno 101]

Same sex couples need to state in their application the STATE they intent to get married in, as our application generated an RFE for this reason -

"From the evidence, it is not clear where the petitioner and the beneficiary will wed. Therefore, please submit a statement indicating in which state the petitioner and the beneficiary intend to marry."

Nowhere is this asked in the I-129F, so get ahead of the game by supplying this information with the initial I-129F. I suggest modifying the "Statement of Intent to Marry" letter to read:

"I, ********, do hereby state that I am legally able and willing to marry ***********, and intend to do so within 90 days of his/ her arrival into the US using the K-1 visa. We intend to marry in the state of *Insert State where same sex marriage can be performed*."

In July 2015 the SCOTUS (Supreme Court Of The United State) is expected, though not guaranteed, to make a ruling in favour of full countrywide recognition of same sex marriages and that all states will be required to allow them to be performed. Until then, to avoid an RFE make sure you state in writing and plan on getting married in a State that allows same sex marriages.

Has anyone else gotten an RFE like this where the state to which a couple will be getting married was not mentioned in the letter of intent?

I know I didn't put it on mine. I just used the template from VJ.

We didn't, but I live in a state where same sex marriages are legal, so that could be why.

[ChasUno 101]

My partner lives in Ohio, which doesn't currently allow same sex marriages. We already knew that and have planned on marrying in West Virginia, which does. Travandlhen, like you we just used the VJ template and had no idea that this would be an issue until we got the RFE.

I met my fiancee on filipinocupid.com and this is the first I heard of needing to provide external evidence that this site is not an International Marriage Broker. Is this really necessary? If so, how do I go about proving that this site is not an International marriage Broker?

Thanks!
