I just read on the USCIS that I have been issued an RFE. I am going crazy racking my brain to predict what it is for. I thought I very carefully provided all the necessary information. Hopefully it will arrive in the mail very soon. Very discouraged and afraid to get this.

Calm down and check (your copy) all of those you've sen't to uscis. And when you think you've figure it out post it here and we'll help.

Smaller problems then I expected. Two issues, one was I forgot to fill out the murder and mayhem portion of the I-129F saying I was not now and had never been a violent criminal. That was easy, check the right boxes, sign the form part 1 taken care of. Problem 2, although I checked off question 35 with a NO, we did not use a marriage broker. When I described how we met, I just said, "a website". That was enough to override the "NO" from question 35. So I have been asked to identify the web site that we met on, and provide the "attach a copy of the signed, written consent form the IMB obtained from your beneficiary authorizing the release of your beneficiary's personal contact information to you." Well the website we met on was yahoo chat. So, I've written an expanded answer to question 34A to identify the website and then wrote refuting the conditions that describe our meeting. We exchanged personal information directly. No one was paid for the exchange of information. There was no matchmaker or third party involved.

I think that should be good enough. And my posting in the RFE topic of the exact text got a "I wrote essentially the same thing and it worked for me." So now I just need to send it all back in the envelop provided.

Glad it was easy enough!

Hi there. i think we will be having an RFE same as the first one you stated above. I looked at our form and saw that part blank and has no answer. May I ask how long the RFE took for you to receive it and when USCIS takes an action on your RFE please do update. Thanks!

I used my case number on the 15th and saw that an RFE had been generated on the 13th. It arrived at my house on the 20th. My application is in the California processing center and I live in NY. If you live closer to California then mail time will be less.

I have the response complete and expect to mail it today.

So I spent a few hours on here last night and stressed myself out about getting an RFE. I swore we were going to get one. Generally I've been over-checking our case status and decided to just head to bed instead of checking again. Well, I woke up and found an email sent last night right around the time I went to bed. The time stamp was for 10:30pm EST. It's our NOA2! So all that stress over an RFE and we didn't even get one!

So those of you who are stressing, don't stress. Our NOA1 was June 19th and our NOA2 was July 21st. Just over a month :) I believe our previous filing for an extension on his visitors visa may have been pretty adequate proof we met in person. Anyway, I'm over here doing a happy dance! :joy:

This journey isn't easy...we went over many hurdles along the way... We are together now, 4 years going strong... It's never impossible, it is a matter of having the strength and love to conquer all things along the way!
