Ok, se we mailed back BOTH of our RFE's, and still NO update on the USCIS website in regards to even getting them. Now I am a bit concerned over this as most of you know, I am able to stay with Ian in the UK, therefore we are doing the paperwork from over here and my bestfriend back at home is forwarding everything to us. I called her on Saturday the 29th, and she said that the only thing she got was the letter stating that the I-130 was transferred to California which ironically, we ended up getting that day in the post.

Now I understand that you have to wait 30 days before you call, but I also know that there are crafty ways of getting answers from them..lol I know because I have done it before lol. I need some advice on what to do here. It wouldn't be so bad if I were in the States and was sending it from there because it is easier to track. Over here in the UK, yes you can post via registered/signed for, but the thing is, once it leaves the UK, you can no longer track it. There is no confirmation of them actually getting it.

Any thoughts or suggestions?

Thanks...

Did you mail the RFEs from the UK? Or did you send them to your friend in the States first so she could resend them and have them postmarked from there? I'm not sure if this would make a difference, but ...

Don't fret about a lack of touching or updates. Sometimes these don't show up on your case status until after you've received an email or snail mail that they received something. Hang in there.

Hiya hun! TO answer your question, because we have a place to go to when we go over to the states, we were able to start the immigration process here. Thus far we haven't had any problems.

Now, I have just called USCIS and they told me that it can take upto 60 days from them receiving the RFE to enter it in their system. Correct me here if I am wrong, but I read elsewhere that it was suppose to be 30 days?! Am I wrong on this??? I seriously hope that things are going to slow down again, not after getting my spirits up for being touched so much on the I-130 petition. WEEP!!

I sent back RFE's for my 2 childrens AOS on 6th July, i'm still waiting for any type of touch/update for them to say that they have recieved it.
Even though USPS says it was delivered on 8th July
I called the USCIS mis-information line and they also told me that it can take upto 60 days for a touch/update to say they had recieved them.

Sorry i couldn't have been more help.

I should have known that it would do no good to call after 30 days like they suggested to me last week. Of course now, it's "Wait 60 days"....

There is still no confirmation that either of my 2 RFE's were received. And now, I know there's no point calling them again. So I won't waste my time.

There are several people waiting for their RFE's to be confirmed received. We've just got to assume they got there and it's just taking a while to get them all entered.

Don't lose faith yet!

I just got confirmation that they recieved my RFEs 3 days ago. I'd wait a week and call them.

How ironic, the day after I call USCIS to inquire about the status of my returned RFE's, today I get not one, not two, BUT THREE EMAILS confirming that they received them. HOW GREAT IS THAT??? lol I was getting so down because everyone kept saying they got their approvals shortly after they got their notices of being received....woooooohoooooooooooooo....


I can't help but keep my faith and spirits up!!

I smell an approval here soon....


LJ

That's great news! Maybe, just maybe, they'll get mine soon, too.....

Congrats Laura! I got mine today as well. I thought I smelled something! Must be the winds of change and approvals wafting our way! Good luck!



Tracy yours is on its way! I would say by the end of the week since you called them after 30 days. Praying for you girl!
