Hi everyone…

I just had a question that make my confused

I personally took it as a good sign when our RFE was sent from a FO. My personal understanding (I am not a professional) is that it is sent to the FO for final adjunctification. From extensive googling what I found as the most common experience in the circumstance of a medical RFE from a FO was the medical RFE gets returned to the FO who then (upon approval) sends it back to NBC for them to process/send out green card. 

 

We received a medical RFE from a FO that isn't ours, we returned it April 8th and today we got the notification (CaseTrack App) that our Greencard is being produced (Exactly 30 days after delivered to the FO and the status never changed to received- which I have seen is also common as what I have read it that the NBC has a team to update statuses and FO don't always). I have seen it is usually a minimum of 30-60 days before you hear anything back after they receive RFE response. The FO ours went to was Cincinnatti.

 

Best of luck!

 

ETA: Yes, it is normal for them to distribute to other offices with lesser workloads as well (is my understanding).

Requests for initial evidence (e.g., I-864) generally come from service centers early in the intake process, usually the NBC in Lee's Summit, MO.

 

Requests for additional evidence (e.g., medical RFEs for I-693) usually come from field offices during the actual adjudication process.
