i-751 divorce petition - updated to "request for additional evidence"

[POLLI2832 2]

Hello,

I was messed up to hire wrong lawyer.

I prepared the a-lot of evidence for i-751, but he submitted the my application (without filling out the spouse information)

he insisted that I am self-petioner, so I don't need to put the spouse information on I-751 form.

I already posted question here on Jan, 2022. at that time, I argue with lawyer about this matter. He only fill out that page and submitted to the USCIS on Jan, 2022.

Finally, my status updated to Request for Additional evidence.

I have not received the letter yet, but I want to have question about Request for additional evidence.

For my research, 

1. what is difference between request for additional evidence and request for evidence(RFE)?

request for additional evidence is much better sign than request for evidence? I already submitted all documents that I have. car loan, car title, join bank statement, join filing tax for 1 year, we always used the our joint bank statement.

 

2. contents for updated status is that they said on July 15, 2022, we sent a request for additional evidence for your Form I-751. the request for evidence explains what we need from you. we will not take action on your case until we receive the evidence or the deadline to submit it expires.

Do you guys think they request the missing information on the form (spouse information)? otherwise, what is the possible additional information they will request?

My lawyer submitted the missing information on I-751 form later, so they might have corrected i-751 form? I hope they only request i-751 form that I am missing.

I double check every information, but I regret that I believe him for filling out the i-751 form. The reason why I hired the lawyer because of form. especially, my spouse left united state because she is dual citizen from canada and us.

she signed the divorce paper in Canada and send me the form to me.

they have the same format for Request for additional evidence? or they have the different format for request for additional evidence depend on case.

I am so panic what they will request soon.

 

Do i just give up my case?

how long I have to submit the document after I receive the evidence.

 

if I can't provide additional evidence on time, they might process my case based on previous evidence.

Is it higher possibility that my case will be denied?

 

Please help..

No point of discussion before you see the RFE content. It could be anything.

[Dashinka 24,494]

No need to give up your case at this point.  Wait for the RFE and see what USCIS is requesting.  Btw, no difference between request for additional evidence and request for evidence.

 

Good Luck, and let us know what USCIS is looking for.

Might have been missing one of the divorce documents. I know when I got an RFE (I was waiting for it because I didn't have the decree at the time) they requested both the decree and the divorce petition. 

 

You shouldn't worry until you get the RFE in hand, it might just be for something trivial.

I only submitted the summary dissolution (final decree) to uscis because I already have the final descree.

my divorce document was so simple.

what is the divorce petition?

Yeah it is true.

thank you for advice. Let you know what they are requiring.

First of all, sorry that your lawyer screwed up. Based on your previous post, your lawyer left out information about your ex. Most likely the RFE is about that, but there’s no point in counting the eggs before they hatch. What I would do on Monday is to fire that attorney and request a compensation for malpractice. What they did is a rookie mistake that’s now costing you stress and time. You don’t need an attorney to proceed. Once you get the RFE, post it here (leave out personal info) and we’ll help you.

And no, why would you give up your case?

The petition is the original document you file with the clerk office to start the divorce processings. At least here in Florida, it's the document I filed when I paid the filing fee. (I did a simplified divorce just to get the process over with as quick as possible; big mistake). 

 

They may need it, or it might have just been requested because they needed my decree at same time. You won't really know till you have the RFE in hand.

In I-751 divorce waivers, when they ask for the “ divorce petition “ it’s because they want to see if the listed date of separation matches the I-751 answers / evidence/ addresses.

I received the rfe.

They asked me the specific question the following :

my paystub change the status from single to married and then single. Asked me why I keep changing the status.

 

i just changed the status because my company filed me wrong status, so i changed it from single and then married. However, i heard that status is not matter.i heard that both status are married on paycheck, i had to pay alot of tax amount when i submit the tax return.

My roommate made contract for 2 bed and 2 bath condo and I made the contract with roommate. My wife joined after marriage but she back and fourth few month because of hee school. However, i messed up I found out that i wrote the different year on roommate agreement and i-751 form. That was my mistake. How can i explain this matter. They also asked me why my spouse changed the address on credit card statement for only one month. I dont know she did it. In my opinion, she just used alot of credit card payment, so she just changed it in my opinion. I just know it after they send me the rfe. Moreover, I joined her verizon account but i didnt think about changing the name. However, in the later i realized that someone see my wife name and I realized that i need to change it. However, this is also only one month on my name. I dont know why this is changed on verizon bills..

They asked me lots of specific questions on rfe.

Don’t rush to respond:..it’s a bit more than explaining away the few inconsistencies in the RFE, so take your time.

Wasn't me, I think it was @God is a good God, he overcame a NOID in a very very messy case.

I got an RFE, my response was 3 pages, but I did send them basically a copy of every god damn thing I could find.

I already gave all documents to them.

However, I don't have that much document right now to proof it. This is because original roommate agreement had the typo.

I dont know how to explain that I dont know what happened to address change in credit card statement only one month.
