Hi superhuman,

 

I ended up filing online and it was super easy, fast, and streamlined. I got no RFE and I got my citizenship without problems back in June. Good luck

Sounds like he/she wants to make you apply through his/her office and thus retain revenue 

 

My GC lawyer told me he didn’t expect me to retain his services for my N400 application because the “naturalization process should be simple”. He was right on both points. I did online with no RFE’s. Just follow the instructions.

I also say your attorney is trying to make money out of you.  Do the N-400 on line.  It is one of the easier forms, the online system makes sure you have completed all required sections, and tells you what documents are required.  I had no RFE.
