Hi March Filers!
Seems like this thread isn't too busy, but hope I can share my current concerns...!!!
when we filed our I-130, we completely forgot to put our Photos for evidence :( do you think this will affect us in any ways?
We put affidavit but not the pictures.

Any advice?

Thanks~

If I'm not wrong, it'll most likely cause a RFE, God forbid, as it is I believe one of the requirements for supporting documents. Or it could make the process longer.

Hi fmizan

We filed it at the end of March. In the listing, PHOTOS weren't listed,,, :( so I thought I just needed to bring it to the interview at the embassy.

The center is Lincolon. Maybe I should call to see if we can send in the photos?
