I wish I had an answer for you. I been wating for over a year. The good thing is that you at least got an RFE and that you are able to get things rolling on your case. All I can do is wait and be at the mercy of USCIS to when they are done with their background checks. In your case how ever, I have seen many people get approved soon after they return the RFE. Best wishes and may you get your approval soon.

You think even in my situation it will take that long, because of the RFE I had recently. They received all the things they asked for as of July 12th. Now shouldn't it be quick after that? I am just wondering how long it might take after they receive the RFE. See my wife is pregnant and I am hoping that somehow she can come here by October... Fingers Crossed... :whistle:

It's hard to say, every case is different. It's always good to prepare for the worse, if you get approved before the 6 months then great, if not, then you at least were prepared for it.

Hey guys, can anyone give me a rough estimate as to when I should be getting something in the mail (Approval) now based on my Timeline for my I130... I am waiting on it to plan my trip to India.

Thanks

It is pretty common to get a decision within a few days of the service center receiving the additional evidence they requested but there is not way to know when or what that next step will be.

Facts are cheap...knowing how to use them is precious...
