Request for Evidence

[Paul's Mrs. 0]

Hi Everyone,

I received a letter requiring a Request for Evidence which they said was included in the second page. The second page is below. I have already sent a whole package in with everything listed below. I am not sure what to do and am freaking out now. Could it be a mistake?

Help!

It seems they may have lost your complete package which can happen and if so I am so sorry this has happened to you. You will need to send all this off again and hope they get it this time. Make sure you get a tracking number so you know it is delivered.

I've seen people post this on the forum before so it happens from time to time. I recommend you do as Paul's Mrs. said and resend everything. Good Luck

Send it again. Add anything else you can think of. Go heavy on evidence generated by £rd parties" and official documents, policies, accounts etc. showing joint financial interests and liability.

Also, if you haven't done it already, make sure your evidence spans the two years since AOS. It looks like some people get RFEs because they only submitted one or two utility bills or just the front page of a bank statement. If you've done all that, I guess all you can do is resubmit your package. At least they're looking at your application. A lot of people get approved right after they respond to an RFE.
