Did you send the newer I-129F, the one with 3 pages, last page with questions like did you use an dating site to meet your fiance? If you used that form then you should not get and IMBRA RFE. Acording to the USCIS sites you should be conserned if you filed befor February 23.

You have some time before you should get conserned.

Be glad you dont get an RFE it just slows the process down, as long as you sent them a compleat package you should not get RFE.

The 2 inital touches probbly were for entering your case into the system and if you used the 3 page IMBRA I-129F noting that they dont need to send you an RFE for IMBRA. You may not see any touches untill just before they start processing your case, in October or November.

OUR TIME LINE Please do a timeline it helps us all, thanks.

Is now a US Citizen immigration completed Jan 12, 2012.

i know that i used the old forms and i need to get an rfe

I also have not received my IMBRA RFE. I even called them last month - the person on the phone couldn't give any details other than I would be notified by email when they send it. My file was touched 3 times right after the call, but then nothing. After checking with them, I went ahead and sent them the new I-129F form as amendment, making it clear with cover letter and stickies that included my original petition receipt number. You might consider doing that. My hunch is that USCIS designated a cut off date where they presumed any petition received after that date would have used the new form. That's my guess. Also would explain why our petitions haven't been processed. I'm thinking their plan is to approve all pre-IMBRA petitions before proceeding further and unfortunately because of our NOA1 dates, they are assume we are post-IMBRA so we're not going to get looked at until all the March, April, and May petitions get processed. That's my best guess anyway.

You guys will get your RFEs when the processing at USCIS turns to your case. Do not worry. I do not think calls and emails can help for that unfortunately.
