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.Originally Posted by waitinglong
Can some one post a sample RFE letter (may be black out name, SRC and other number references)? Knowing we will get one similar will help get ready by the time we actually receive one.
Policy Highlights
Limits the validity period of Form I-693 to one year from time of submission to USCIS.
Provides guidance on filing the Form I-693, to include guidance on concurrent and
subsequent filings prior to the adjudication of the benefit application.

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,
PD: 14 July 2008, RD:03 Jan 2012 ,ND:06 Jan 2012, FP Date:26 Jan 2012, EAD/AP Approval: 10 Feb 2012, EAD/AP Received: 17 Feb 2012,GC: RFE
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...
Hello All!!
We have some traction finally. PD Aug 2008. Got an RFE letter saying emp verification + updated Medical required. The RFE also said something about the case being pre-adjudicated, but need the emp form and the medicals.
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?
PD: Aug 2008. RFE response Review 6/19. Initial Review on 6/20
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.
PS: I just went through this.
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.

What bothers me is that I have a PD of 7/3/2008 and have not yet received and RFE. Should I be worried?
Got SMS/e-mail alerts for RFE's on 485 cases for myself/spouse today with annotation that RFE is dated May 31, 2014. Waiting to see actual letter some time later this week.

I got email today with my 485 application status change. On checking status, RFE issued to my case and my dependent on 31st. Will I receive copy of the letter? I think Law firm gets it. Also based on your experience, how long does it take from RFE issue date?
I didn't have any electronic notification and the RFE came to me. So I can't comment on your question. My guess is it's no more than a week as really it's putting the letter in the mail and having usps deliver it.
I received RFE today. By that I mean, the status is showing as RFE in USCIS website. Also I received email and text message on my phone today. I have not received the actual RFE letter, so I don't know what all they asked for - only medical or something else also. The RFE is for myself, my spouse and kid. My priority date is 2-July-2008 - EB2-I.
IGuys, wha if my new position within the same company is different? Would the evl have to have the same job title or different?
Example : initial evl said SAP BI and now it says SAP SD. What if I got promoted and my salary and title role changed? But within the same company y.
My company also got acquired by a bigger company recently and all letter heads would reflect the new company name. What supporting documentation should my ployer provide
PD: Aug 2008. RFE response Review 6/19. Initial Review on 6/20
Internal promotions are not a big deal. I would have the EVL say something like "currently a SAP SD and was promoted from SAP BI in 20xx". Also, about the acquisition. I would include a statement saying that the applying company was acquired on xxxx date and maybe include a formal announcement of the acquisition. I'm sure your company has something that was sent to your customers informing them of the acquisition (or perhaps a news clipping from the WSJ or some renowned local paper e.g. NY Times, Chicago Tribune, Post, SF Chronicle, etc.). Most public libraries have access to older issues of newspapers.
Again remember that you need to show proof of future employment so as long as your company is willing to say that you have a job and this is your role, etc. you shouldn't have issues.
Quick question - Post acquisition, I assume you needed to re-submit an I-9 ? What did you use then (EAD or H1)

At my company, after acquisition; they filed a new I-140 for Successor in Interest; even though original I-140 was approved. The new I-140 was eventually approved.
Viz,
Regarding acquisition, I don't think it is that simple as you have mentioned. Just mentioning X has acquired/merged with Y in the EVL is certainly not enough. Of course there needs to be a new I-140 amendment (without perm) in case of all mergers.
AC21 route may workout in this scenario. I'll see what is in Spec's mind.
Tail: I'll follow up the replies in IST.

I am wondering the same thing. My PD is 08/04/2008. i got an RFE back in April for EVL and Marriage bonafides, but no medical rfe yet.
You are right. I just assumed it was ac21. That's why I asked in the end.
