Long of the short, got an RFE for my husbands birth cert/i94. Sent them off two days after we got the hard copy. We are using a lawyer so no, I don't have a tracking number that I know of (unless the office sent with tracking). Husband spoke to lawyer yesterday and she basically said we will get an email and case tracker update when recieved and processed.

Mailed it out the 28. It's been 7 days, and maybe I'm jumping the gun and panicking too soon but I see folks saying their status updates to recieved after just a few days.

If you had an initial RFE, how long was it til your status updated to "response recieved" online and in the case tracker app? We had 90 days to respond.

MyUSCIS case status updated the day after it was delivered to RFE response received. I sent it back the day after I received it. Having said that I have seen on VJ numerous times where people's case status wasn't updated afterwards, even though they did receive it. I kinda came to the conclusion that my human at their end liked updating things, as I received all of the updates as soon as they were happening.

We mailed ours with signature confirmation so that's how we could pin point delivery. Did you by chance mail it from the post office? The receipt should have a Pid number on it and works like a tracking number.

Our lawyer mailed it, not us ourselves. I actually have no idea what method of delivery she used. My god I hope she didn't use old school stamps and envelope *terror*
