Ok here's the update for my second RFE, it's the same reason affidavit of support. I don't know why they didnt include the 1099 of my Husband and it's worth 40k and the 1044 of 100k, but the letter said that he only have 27k on line 22 on his 1040 , well according to the TIER 2 today, just get co sponsor and send it right away so we can get the AED soon, but we continue to argue and said that maybe the one handling the case doesn't know how to look at the tax paper...... But he said no need to argue ( he was not very helpful and pleasant anyway) so I have an appointment to USCIS Ombudsman on Dec 5 ( the latest schedule we can get to follow up the AED) and for the mean time my aunt is willing to be our co sponsor, so once I get all the paper work this weekend I will send it on Monday.

It's just this immigration system is so broken and even the immigration officer that we spoke to can't give us clear answer. So I learned something today " DONT ARGUE!

Man, that sucks to hear, but a second RFE is better than a denial, right?

I feel I'm about to be in the same boat as you, seeing as my first RFE is currently under review due to my hubby not having a US tax return the first time around. I can't escape the fear and anxiety of us not quite being out of the woods just yet. I worry we've done the tax return wrong and we'll be getting a second RFE.

But here's a question for everyone - have any of you received an interview waver letter?

I have the same problem for i485 and i130. Did you change your address? The address change gets associated with i485 and i130 only (i765 and i131 are bound on i485 so their status doesn't change.

So the status of my applications is your address has been changed and after the website was upgraded nothing is displayed! I can only see that fancy "~My~" ...

If you find a solution to that problem let me know please :)

I called USCIS today they said that its problem because of the website upgrade and nothing else is wrong. Give them a call after 30 days if the problem continued. Moreover, I don't about others but they told me that Los Angeles county Field office is now working on the cases filed in April ... so mine was filled in beginning of sept so....
