Can you please tell me if your BCs had full names on them?

If USCIS is asking for BCs with full names, won't they specifically mention that in their RFE notice?

Thanks Teddy, my attorney botched up a format and tossed it to me. Since I'm paying 250, I must at least get that from them :)

My lawyer said affidavits have to be from someone other than parents. I your case I feel, that they somehow misplaced your BC, if the birth was registered within a year and the contents are fine there should not have been any issue at all. Make sure that the notary puts in a stamp saying internationally valid.

arigato !

Doitashimashite!

Maybe we should "sticky" this thread so that those who receive RFE in future will have a place to start. Mods, what do you think?

I gave what my attorney asked, along with Check for 250 :(. Now, It's up to them to find some of their precious time to file my not so important RFE response.

As fyi:
I submitted my BC ( for the second time) along with a notarized affidavit from my mother, solemnly swearing that I am indeed her son. Since I could not get the original, I forwarded the scanned copy to my attorney. Great country.

Response Filed. keeping fingers crossed.

What does your case-status say? "Request for Initial evidence" or ""Request for additional evidence"? Please keep us updated.

Good luck & thank you.

I have got an affidavit from my parents for a name change on my BC ( i have an extra initial on BC, which I have since dropped). but looking at the RFEs here, I am wondering what else I should prepare just in case.

my issue is that my school certificates, till my Xth exams show the name with that initial. want to be prepared in advance, since back home my parents have medical conditions and may not be able to run around for me at short notice.

any suggestions? as always this forum is a great support for people in Q..

I think any one. I will check this now.. But on the requested docs i dont have anything to prove my name and my parents name together as i am from TN. Can i resubmit Affidavit again?

My attorney mentioned that if there are any problems with BC (no name, late registration etc) - then it is best to provide some secondary evidence (School Records, Hospital Records etc) and then two to three tertiary evidence (Affidavits). I guess USCIS is looking for some secondary evidence - 10th Certificate, School Leaving Certificates etc. IMO - the list is an OR and not AND - but more you can manage the better.

How much time have they given you? Best wishes to you in getting the response ready and filed with all required documentation in time.

Nothing yet Leo.

@indiaeb2 when did you receive the RFE alerts, it’s been 5 days for me already ? Also who received the RFE details yourself or attorney.

Both my attorney and I received the RFE letter. I received the email on last Thursday, actual letter on this Monday.

Thanks Imdeng. I can submit my school leaving certifcate but i does not have my parents name. so not sure if that will be use

Check with your attorney, but here's what I'd do:
a. school leaving certificate
b. Ration Card or Election Card or house hold card or property documents or any government papers
c. Notarized affidavits from parents and relatives stating that above two ( a& b) are correct to the best of knowledge.

My case status changed to "RFE Response Review". God, this wait and these multiple instant messages are killing me:) I even got two ims for my H1B approval today...which btw was filed in october :) You can imagine my heart-beat monitor :)
