Musings on RFE

[Mark + Melissa 49]

Ok. So I've been watching Igor's list, and chatting with other friends on here, and it doesn't appear that any RFE's have been processed in December at all by the CSC. Being one of those with a response that was received in December, I am just curious as to why. Do you think they just do all the RFE responses on one day, knocking them out? What's your thoughts/opinions. Do they have an RFE day, or do they wait for the trained monkey to deliver it in return for a bite of banana?

That's terrible that you've had to wait for so long. I got an RFE too. They will get my response in the mail this week some time.

Are you checking your case online too? What was your RFE for? My profile shows my RFE story if you're interested.

Hi based on our RFE sent out Sept 12/11--where it never arrived in mail, they wouldnt discuss it for three weeks, then allowed my fiance to confirm address... said it would be mailed in 3 days --it arrived 3 weeks later ( just mailed 3 days prior)...he sent back info( duplicate copy of his divorce records)on Oct28---noa2 Dec 9/11. So.....I think they only deal w RFE once a month for just one day.You would logically think already opened cases would have priority over unopened...

Mine was a bit of stupidity on my part.. I had a stamped copy of the divorce papers, and submitted it.. Oopps.. was stamped FILE copy, did not have judges signature.

They also belched on his divorce extract from Scotland for no signature.. which they don't do in Scotland, but he got around that by spending a couple hours on phone explaining our crazy system.

They also RFE'd our letter's of intent, which were taken straight from the template, original signatures etc.. so we resubmitted them after double checking the intent to marry templates.

I called about it, but all I got was word-by-word EXACT what was on the website. One of my friends has been waiting since her November RFE. I've decided I'm more impatient than Impatient Cupcake . My congressman has an open door policy on January 3, and I will be there with all my paper and his release form signed...... Boehner better be good for something more than political rhetoric!

Maybe it's the December flu. Gotta use them sick days before the first of the year. No better time than the holiday season, especially when there aren't any tourists on the beaches and the Santa Ana winds are kicking up the surf in Dana Point!

Seriously, I think this is the third year in a row I've seen someone post about a December slowdown at CSC. I'm beginning to think this is just the way they operate there.
