Had the joy of receiving an e-mail stating that we received a Request For Evidence.

I'm not too worried as I have a feeling it may be something silly. I just hope it's not too involved for my fiance as he is currently deployed and not in the USA!

We got rfe in June . They sent another form of I-30 and another one was G something, biometric form . At first we worried that they would ask about sworn affidavit cuz we didn't send it. After a month later, we got our NOA 2.

Thankyou so much! I've included everything possible that I could think off! We knew pretty early on what we wanted out of the relationship and the organisation freak in me decided to look up what the requirements were to immigrate. So I saved all the tickets, boarding passes, photos receipts I could get my hands on! We shall see what it is. Like I said, I'm not too worried, just interested to hear what everyone else's experiences are.

Thank you Tigerflower, that makes two of us! I can't wait to see him again! I think we've done more talking in 1 1/2 year long distance relationship than a normal 10 year couple! haha

Hope all is well with you :thumbs:

How are you going to get the RFE if he is out of the country? The RFE will be mailed to US address??

Don't forget the military has a USCIS hotline at their disposal.!
