so it is 6:30a...i literally just got a text from uscis...my heart started pounding...so i go to check my case...and boom...an RFE!!! 😲...i just knew going through rapid visa that everything would be just right...and i was expecting a straight approval...i don't know what it is asking for i have to wait to receive letter...but i want to know what is normal waiting time once RFE is received to uscis??? 😢😢😢...thx in advance...i feel so sad...but then again action has been taken so atleast that has happened...i guess.

Also, I know it won't help but you should do a complaint on the Better Business  Bureau's website about Rapid Visa when you find out what the RFE is.

You can call the USCIS ask to speak with a Tier 2 Rep and have them read you your RFE.

Congratulation on your approval. So happy for all of you who got their approval 😊. I'm getting anxious and excited to get our approval too. Wish us luck. Noa1 received date: August 22 and notice date: August 27.

Oh nice! We have the same dates, so I hope we'll hear something around the same time then! Best of luck! :D

Unfortunately, this is something I've seen with RapidVisa again and again and again... They are not lawyers, they are document filing service, they really have no "skin" in the game, and in most cases they don't have to worry about repeat business. I would love to see actual statistics of people getting RFE who used them vs the ones who didn't. 

 

Very common RFEs I saw in my time on this forums (last 6 months or so) are

  • Prove online dating place you've met is not IMBRA. This also includes forgetting to check IMB checkbox on 129F
  • We need 2 letters of intentions, instead of one signed by 2 people.
  • Document is too blurry/not eligible
  • Divorce decree is not "final" form that they expect. 

I assume you are filing for Ghana, you might try contacting for your future Packet 3 information. Unfortunately it seem US Embassy in Ghana official website is rather empty. Good luck, hope you hear something soon!

P3 or "packet 3" is an informal name used here for the first communication from the embassy/consulate to the beneficiary. Your consulate may or may not have one.

You are familiar with NOA1 and NOA2 already. Packet 3 or P3 is apparently what SOME (but not all!) embassies sent to your beneficiary outlying exact requirements they need to fulfill before the interview. Basics of are are same, fill out DS-160, security report, I-134, but specifics can and do vary some, like when and how you suppose to get your medical done, what is accepted as proof on income along with form I-134 etc. If you read the thread I linked, someone from Ghana offered to sent their P3 (Packet 3) information so other people from same country can get some head start. Hope this helps.
