Hello,

 

My husband's co-worker recently brought up a topic that my husband happened to overhear that there is a rumor that instead of sending people an RFE for Green Card these days, people have just been receiving rejection letters instead? Is this something that is real? I don't think I did so bad to get a rejection letter, but as we wait, this kind of rumor does make me nervous.

 

If anyone else has heard anything about this rumor, please let me know. I am praying it is baseless since he only overheard his coworker speaking about it. 

 

Thank you,

Stacy

If you dont send basic required documentation then yes they will deny vs RFE.  But they will still RFE as needed for more evidence.

Whoever your husband heard the rumor from is somewhat correct, yes USCIS posted a while back that cases received after Sep 11, 2018  would be denied when required initial evidence was not submitted or the evidence of record fails to establish eligibility.   

Somewhat incorrect because this only took effect a couple days ago, hasn't been the case before.
