missing RFE

[yamila 0]

I got a letter on August 11th saying that they would send me a new RFE ( because the first one got lost in the mail and never arrived). IT didn´t say when it would be resent. It has now been 60 days since that day and no letter has appeared. What are my options? Should I wait longer? What should I tell the people when I call the USCIS? I called once adn they said that I couldn´t do anything about it, and I called another time and they said to wait longer.

I would continue calling and insisting A LOT, letting them know you have waited for a long time to recieve your RFE in the mail. You need the RFE to arrive to know what they want, it may be IMBRA info. or maybe something else, let us know what happens.

Best of luck!

Make sure your name is on the inside of your mailbox.

This may be a silly question, but did you verify they have the correct address? I think the email you received regarding the RFE states that you can request them to send another after 30 days, and for you it's been nearly 60 days if I understand your post. I'd be on the phone to my congressmans office.

Another option I just thought of, perhaps others could comment, would be to just get a copy of the IMBRA supplement for pre-IMBRA applications and send it in with RFE marked on the outside of the envelope, and include a cover letter stating that you never received the original RFE in over three months.

I don't know if this would work, but I'd sure try it and in the mean time, contact your congressman.

Maybe someone here has a copy of the blank IMBRA rfe they could send you, or know where you could find it online.

That's exactly what I tought too Bill, I would go ahead and try that too I don't think it would hurt

Yamila, there's a scanned copy of an RFE here in VJ, I'm sure you'll find it with a quick search

Good to hear from you. I realize we' didn't start this race together, but maybe we can still dash to the finish line together, (of this leg any way). My prayers are with you.

Thanks Bill! I hope everything goes OK with your 2nd RFE

I have a feeling you may get to NVC before us though- we still don't have the RFE; but that's OK, we're just happy to be out of CSC limbo and know that our case is back in the game

We are cheering for you though!

I understand how you feel. I got the email that my RFE was sent on 9/11/06 and I've never received it at home either. Luckily for me, I hired a visa attorney and he also receives a copy of everything that goes to me.... He ended up sending me his copy of the RFE (it was just the IMBRA one) and I over nighted it back to them the next day (last week).

FINALLY, a full week later, they sent the standard email saying they had received my RFE back and are continuing to process my case.

If I were you, I'd find a copy of the IMBRA RFE and fill it out and send it back. You might be lucky and find that is all they've asked for. MAKE SURE you put a cover letter in there with your proper address verified so they can double check their files at that end to ensure it is going to you at the right place.

Of course another option would be to fill out the NEW I-129-F form that includes the IMBRA questions, mail it to the CSC with a cover letter asking them to use it as an ammendment to your initial petition with a photo copy of your original receipt. Explain that you have been waiting for 60 days for your RFE and it still hasn't arrived. That may help, it may not...

Good luck!
