Just spoke with lawyer, he said that I sent in too much stuff. so when you sent in too much stuff, they think its fake..(seriously?? wth??)

Anyways, he said luckily my RFE is minor cuz they ask for only 1 thing. They didn't loose my marriage certificate copy.

Lawyer said they are (gadha) they don't know anything. He is preparing a reply for my RFE & I will be mailing it today. I m bringing lawyer in at this point (I filed by myself before) so Idk if that has any effect on my case. He assured me not to worry. lets see what happens.

So, Did you lawyer advice you to send another copy of your marriage certificate? If you don't mind, could you tell us what was in your RFE reply? Thank you in advance.

Wishing you get your approval very soon.

Lawyer suggested to sent in copy of marriage certificate again & he gave it to me notarized. My RFE reply contained-

1. RFE letter (I made copies for my own record)

2. Letter stating that my marriage certificate is in English already because of the Registration of Marriage requirement that was made compulsory in India for foreign purposes.

3. Copy of my marriage certificate (this time, I notarized it)

Thats it. I'm mailing today. Thanks for the wishes. I hope to get approval soon too. The process is killing me..Literally!!

My PD is March 17th, do I wait until Sep 17th before filing e-request? Does it have to be 6 months?

Read somewhere that NSC is working on PD march 16th, but doesn't make sense because mine PD is March 24. To be honest, I think it depends on the officer that your case has been assigned to.
