We received THREE quick "touches" and then today an Email notice that a RFE has been sent via mail. Now I have to wait and see what in the world went wrong. We were sure hoping for good news and then this pops up. On the good side,,,,at least our file is now open and active. I will express mail back whatever they are asking for and hope for the best.

I know it's tough, but you've got the right attitude. At least it's now being processed.

Best of Luck to both of you.

Most RFEs are easily fixed and once you submit what they request you will be back on track in no time. Good luck.

Hey Joe,

Sorry to hear you got an RFE. Touches don't always mean NOA2 unfortunately, but like you said, at least it's being processed now. Hope you can get it taken care of as soon as possible and get that NOA2.

Aloha,

Robert

Thanks to all of you for the words of encouragement! I can not imagine what we could have omitted from our K1 filing,,,,but will know as soon as that RFE letter arrives!? Very frustrating. I sent in WAAAAAY more info than was required, so this is a puzzle for us. I'll let you know what they wanted as soon as I hear anything.

Thanks again,

Pim and Joe
