Right now the RFE's are sent only to EB3-I until December. No news about EB2-I at all.
My priority date is EB2I 8/5/2008 (no porting) with I485 filed on 02/2012. Today I received RFE asking for EVL, employment authorization after filing I485 and fresh I693 saying that the validity of the submitted along with the application will expire on 5/31/2014. There are two other trackitt users who received RFE in similar line. One of them has priority day 8/2008 and the other with 1/2008 (porting case).Quote:

Hi Guys, some one posted on trackit forum that he got an RFE for EB2I july 21 2008 priority date for medicals and EVL.
Are we expecting something that is predicted above?
sportsfan33, our priority dates are almost identical, how would you rate our chances this year?Quote:

Hello All... Does anyone with PD beyond Aug-2008 got RFE...
If we do end up getting an RFE, I hope it happens sooner rather than later. Good luck sportsfan, I just saw on Trackitt that someone with a Sep 2008 got an RFE, EB2 could be this year's best blockbuster (for those of us who are close to the finish line). I wonder if we could see some movement in the next bulletin. The dates will land in Aug/Sep 2008 either in July or August bulletin, followed by a move into early 2009.Quote:

Vizcard,
That's a great news! Did you personally receive the RFE in mail or did your lawyer receive it?
Hi,
I just got RFE mail today asking about EVL, I-94 cards, EAD approval notices and I-693 Medicals for dependents asking only I-693(Medicals) only. My PD is 29th July 2008.
Gurus,
This means that the dates will move forward until Oct 2008????????
I got it personally. I'm sure the lawyers got a copy too.Quote:

Yes its official, they have started sending RFE's for this year.
My PD is June 24, 2008 and i just received RFE for EVL and Medicals....
Note:- I'd moved to a new employer using EAD last year..
Hey vizcard,
Did you get RFE?

Got RFE letter in mail today. Online status didn't change/No Email/No Text
RFE Issued Date: 5/22/2014
RFE Received Date: 5/27/2014
Priority Date: 7/15/2008
Category: EB2 - I
Service Center: TSC
I-485 Applied in Jan 2012. As per USCIS, my case was pre adjudicated in June 2012. Still with the sponsoring employer.
Principal Applicant - EVL including job title and duties + proof of continuous employment authorization (since 485) + Medical
Dependent: Medical
IMPORTANT: This request is being made to establish your continued eligibility and in anticipation of an immigrant visa. However, a final decision may not be made until an immigrant visa becomes available to you. The monthly Department of State Visa Bulletin is posted online at ....bulletin_1360.html.
yes. I did.Quote:

I have not received any RFE, and case status on USCIS site shows "Initial Review" still. My date is few days before yours, and TSC. I had applied for address change a year ago for me and my dependent, not sure if that is playing a role here.
Any others received RFEs with PD around July/August 2008 or later?
Should I be worried and call USCIS?
No change in online statusQuote:

I hope so, it would really suck to have to wait another year. Looks like no RFE after September, and if nothing happens then we just have to hope we get lucky. I thought we would at least run through 2008 this year - but there's hope, even Spec's conservative prediction holds the line at Nov 2008!Quote:

5/28/2014: Expiring Medical Report on File and Policy of RFE for New Medical Report
According to the USCIS HQ and AILA teleconference which has just been released, those whose I-693 medical records are pending for over one year will have to wait until they receive RFE from the agency. The RFEs for new medical examinations will only be issued shortly before it is anticipated that the case can be adjudicated to completion. Accordingly, those whose I-485 have been pending for a short period of time may not receive such RFE unless the USCIS will be ready to adjudicate them considering the immigrant visa number availability. Accordingly, those whose priority dates are a way behind the forthcoming Visa Bulletins are not likely to receive such RFEs and will not have to worry about their expired or expiring I-693 until they receive the RFE from the USCIS. Please stay tuned for the forthcoming USCIS release of the new policy.

I am getting very worried now. My priority date is EB2I 2nd July 2008. Two years back I was not lucky enough to get GC when some very lucky ones with 2008 priority dates got their GC. Last year it just stopped 17 days earlier (it was 15th June 2008). If I do not get GC this year due to any reason, like delays due to RFE or anything else, it will be very depressing for me. I really want the GC this year. I keep thinking about a nightmare scenario -they look at my file when the dates are current, and issue a RFE, then it takes some time for the RFE to reach me, and again some more time for the reply to reach the USCIS. By that time, if the quota for the year is over, then what happens? Do I have to wait another year?
My date is 7/3/2008. Can't believe our luck. I have the exact same worries as you have. Let's hope that we make it through. OTOH, my wife will be applying for the first time. I hope that does not hold back my approval.Quote:

This is what is mentioned in the released memo for medicals by USCIS. Does this mean that irrespective of when the medicals are completed, the date of expiry for one year starts from when the form is received by USCIS..? (based on point1)
Hi,
I got the status update as RFE for my I485, waiting to see what it is. I am posting this here to update, you can move it to the right thread
My Priority date: July 14th 2008.
Thanks,
Can someone elaborate on the pattern of RFEs last year.
Were the RFEs sent out in one week or were they sent out gradually over a period of one month ?
If they were sent out in batches then what did the batches look like. Some thing like 1st batch included PDs until June 2007, second until Jan 2008 ?
Any information would help. I have not looked into the forums in a while and I apologize of this question was answered earlier and I missed it.
Never mind... Found last years thread... RFEs were mostly until Mar 2008 and after that there were a few isolated cases...Quote:

1. Do I just reach out to the same Dr and get the I 639 form alone done and a new TB test or do I need vaccinations again?
2. My husband's company has been acquired by a much bigger MNC. Would this cause issues? Also, does the job title has to be the same? What if he got promoted in the last two years and acquired newer skills in addition to the ones he had?
I got an RFE for updated I 693. Do I have to just reach out to the same Dr and get a new I 693 filled or go through vaccinations, blood test again?
I did spot at least two applicants with Oct 08 PD who have got RFE. I think there were maybe two with 09 PD, not sure though but it augurs well for the near future for people with PD in that range. I just hope USCIS doesn't make a mess of it, but they've made a good start by issuing RFE early on for priority dates with a sure chance of being approved, within the Jan-Sep 2008 range.
Hello friends,
Got an email about RFE. Wonder what is that about. My wife received it as well. PD - July 08
If you have records of the vaccinations, you won't need to get them again. But they will do the blood test and TB test (PPD) again.Quote:

Just wanted to let you guys know that there was no online status change even after the RFE notice. I know others have gotten emails and text messages. But if you haven't gotten an email / text message, don't freak out :)
Got an SMS alert for RFE's on all 485 cases for me/dependents on 5/30. Waiting to see actual letter some time later this week.
I have changed employer last fall, so will need to send an AC21 form too i guess.
There is no AC21 form per se. If the RFE asks for an EVL it will specify details needed.Quote:
