I would think it will depend on how late?? a week or two you may be ok a month or two you may be in trouble....

If you get denied then you should get legal help....

What was the reason you didn't comply with the RFE?

Did you know that you can either submit what it asks for; resubmit what you already have or ask them to adjudicate on what they have already and still be considered as having responded and complied? It's just not wise to ignore an RFE as the petition can be denied. Once denied you'd have to file a Motion to Reconsider or a Motion to Reopen (if there is something which you could have supplied, but didn't). Beware: Appealing a denial is time sensitive, and of course only an option if you are adjusting from a visa basis (VWP = no appeal). If you have received a denial it's time to summons assistance from an immigration attorney.

I wasn't able to reply the RFE right away for couple reason. one thing was financial reason & 2nd is we forgot about it sicne we were busy taking care of my dying grandmother and we were looking to talk to my mother inlaw to sponsor me since my husbands salary is below poverty line this year. I know I shouldn't forget about it but it happens.

Anyway, I know its a pain on the butt to re apply or to appeal but Im hoping that they will consider my RFE. I sent it on the day of last submission, we overnight the package. So im crossing all my fingers & toes until I will hear anything from them.

thanks for the input guys!!!
