HOW TO DO RFE?

 Share

Recommended Posts

Hello everyone...I've heard so much about RFE trick but we don't know how to do it. My understanding is you talk to the officer telling him that you got something in the mail (snail mail) and you don't understand what it meant. My husband refuses to call because it would be lying and and if found out we will have an issue with USCIS or something he just doesn't want to jeopardize our case. Can someone please help explain what it is...how to do it? Thanks.

Hi there,

When I called USCIS and then I followed the prompts that led you to the RFE line [i dialed customer service number: 1-800-375-5283 Prompts 1-2-2-4(RFE prompt)-2-1-enter Rec't # 1(to verify)]

When you do this, you are actually transferred to the Service Center where you filed your petition. These reps have more information on your case than the idiots who answer the phones at USCIS. Anyways, when I was transferred there. All I told them was that if they could help me find out the status of my case. I told them I would like to know if my case is almost approved and where I am standing.

YOU DO NOT LIE to them, or make up things telling them you got something in the mail. All you tell them is you would like some more information on your case. That is all.

This is how I did it. I hope this helps.

Hi jimandjosil,

Looking at your timeline, is syas that you filed in June and have been approved in September. Is this true?

If so, you are actually doing great!

Thank you for the responses! Yes I got approved for the I-130 but I am leaning towards the I-129F since we weren't able to file for my daughter. Hopefully approval will come soon. I need to just verify something that's why I need to do the RFE trick...I really don't expect explicit answers from them but who knows they might actually give a detail or 2...worth a try. Thanks.
