WTF!!!

I am receiving a second RFE in the mail from Homeland Secuirty. I have already received one maybe two or three weeks ago and turned it around during 4th of July holiday. I sent what was requested of me certified with a returned receipt which I already have received in the mail.

Has this happened to anyone else. WTF is going on here, I am losing my faith that they have thier act together!!! Before anyone asks, no they are not asking for even more information it's the same request as before... mad.gif

A lot of people got a 2nd IMBRA RFE....... I am going to return mine through regular mail, with a note, and a copy of the one I already returned..........

This is a complete mess. I am so vex right now dammit ***Ugggh***, I aready sent the stupid thing back "ONCE" already!!

I sent it and have confirmation that it was rec'd via USPS.

Now, I just rec'd a second one, Lawd knows what happened to the first one........this just tells me they have no friggin clue whats going on.

Makes me just want to pull my hair out. crying.gif


Well, I am going to send the SECOND, one back I hope they choke on the first one devil.gif

Same here. Got a duplicate two weeks after the first. Can't let it get to me, though. I'll just send it back filled, with a copy of the first. I've never been on a journey that didn't have a few bumps and this one's no different. Got Gravol?
Shanny
yup, my husband got one as well.
this is so frustrating already, we will be sending it out on monday.
Jersey Girl
Shanny, we're twins. Look at our timelines. Maybe this is good luck and I'll be buying you a brewski in Montreal!

that would be awesome!
has your I-130 been approved yet?
if not, it should be anytime now.
are you still gonna go with the K-3 or the CR-1?
i don't think we wanna give up on the K-3 just yet.

We also just got a duplicate RFE, after sending the first one back over 4th July.

I am at least glad that we weren't alone in this....

Well, they bent me over and rammed a duplicate RFE in my @$$ as well. I overnighted my first one back, got confimation of delivery, got an email saying they received my first one. This second one is dated 3 days before they receipt date of my first one.

I don't have a copy of the first one, as I thought someone might know what they were doing...hah.
Reckon I'll send a copy of the email they sent me.

Is there anyone that works at USCIS, NVC, DOHS, or anywhere in the entire US government that is not a total incompetent moron and has some "say so" or "know how" as to how things should work? Good lord...

No news yet on I-130. Like you, I'd to believe K3 will still be quicker and haven't given up on it. I'm trying to remain loose, flexible, and sane. My new role models are Gumby and Pokey
MrsWhizz
Ugh...same here.

I wonder how much money the duplicate ink, paper, postage, printer wear and tear and envelope glue costs?

Bend over, indeed!!!

I got the second RFE today as well, dated 3 days before the e-mail saying they recieved the first one.
phatmadame81
Well I got my second RFE today as well. I never got notice from the USCIS that they got the first one, bu tI have a secon one dated 7/10. This is so swwwwweeeeeeeeetttttttttttttttt,
What is up with these people are they loosing there mind or something. The only answer I have for this is they had RFEs to send out for IMBRA in April and they just got around to sending it in June, but hten they screwd eveything up and entered duplicates because they did not know whose file had a RFE.

Holy Crap.
This process is so twisted.
Now, I'm beginning to worry because I HAVEN'T gotten that ridiculous second RFE.
I think those immigration guys are smoking all the crack that Customs has been confiscating...
khattak
Now when i saw that everyone is getting a 2nd IMBRA RFE I am a not even going to check my mail.
These procrastinator morons at USCIS are making me puke now. They are not accountable to any one.
There cant be a bigger insult than getting a 2nd RFE for the same IMBRA crap.
Dirk Nader
One other thing, my first RFE was a yellow piece of paper and this one was on a white sheet I wonder what was the significance of that? Also, we never imagined we'd get a second RFE, is it possible to get a 3rd and truly turn this SH$%@ into a complete disaster!!!!!!
Jersey Girl
Dirk, this is an exercise in patience. They say it's a virtue (but don't give any clues about how to practise it). So here's my take. We're in a holding pattern, circling the airport indefinitely. We have two choices. We can keep looking out the window for hours, waiting for the landing. Or we can watch the movie to pass the time.

On good days, I have no doubt everything will eventually work out for the best. So in the meantime, I don't want to miss all the good things going on around me because I'm too preoccupied with things I can't control. When we finally land, I want to be relaxed and ready for the next adventure. Not jangled and wild eyed, with coffee stains on my shirt, running to the bathroom because I've absentmindedly been living on beer nuts and Oreos.

We got a duplicate RFE this weekend too. tongue_ss.gif

HEy Man,
i thought i was the only one who received the 2nd Imbra letter. the same thing as the first one, after waiting for about 1 hour on hold i finally talked to this customer service lady who had no clue about what i was talking about! i thought maybe i answered it wrong or something, and wanted to know if if there was a problem with the first one or is there a particular way they wanted us to reply the Imbra questionaire! she told me i should just send a copy of what i sent earlier and just wait!!!!!!@@!!!

Anyway i got a question, anyone know anything about misrepresentation? prior to getting married and filing the k-3, my wife / fiance at the time got refused a visa on the basis of misrepresentation. will that affect this k-3 process if it goes thru again? please any ideas are welcomed!!!

It may very well, yes. Do you have a lawyer? If not, I would at least be consulting one to discuss the specifics of your case.
zam
folks, I finally got the email from USCIS that they have received my RFE that was sent on July 5th. At least there is some progress smile.gif Now I am wondering if i am going to get second RFE as well. I will call my lawyer today. smile.gif

Hopefully the plane doesn't run out of fuel while we continue to make eternal laps in the sky. It's hard to find distractions that are sufficiently interesting to completely take this bungled process off your mind. Still sleepless...

Received duplicate IMBRA RFE yesterday AFTER MSC sent me e-mail 7/12 advising they had received the 1st one. This second one is an exact duplicate of the first one. In their e-mail they say preliminary processing was being done in the application while waiting for the IMBRA RFE and we can only hope these second RFE's are just a result of computer errors.

I am a K-1 and not only did I get 2 RFE's, I got 3!

I received 2 identical IMBRA RFE's and I did not meet my spouse through any kind of service. We met at a bowling alley while he was in the States visiting his sister heart.gif
