we got response today from CSC that they want evidence , we called , and they told us they sent us I-797 , when i google it , this form only when u got approved , I797E thats what they send when the want RFE , i am confused now, anyone know about it ?

I 797 is also called as Notice of Action. It can be anything related to the processing such as receiving notification, transfer notification or RFE.

I would suggest to go over your application and see if nothing is missing in the forms. That way you are ready when you get it and save some time.

They will send you the RFE in the mail. Follow the instructions, make copies of everything and return it right away. Could be something simple like a missed signature.

I am sorry I meant to say I 797E, They all called as Notice of Action but you are correct. I 797E is for RFE

I too got a RFE on the USCIS Website. When I call to get an update they say they mailed me an I-797 form and asked for an RFE for initial evidence. What does this mean?

An RFE is a Request for Evidence. You either made a mistake on a form, or did not include supporting documentation that is required. You will receive an I-797 Notice of Action form in the mail. It will explain what they need from you. You have to wait for the letter. You cannot get information as to what the RFE is about over the phone.

Thanks. I sent a whole bunch of supporting docs like airline tickets, photos, letters from relatives/friends, letter of intent from both of us, chat logs on whatsup viber etc...it was an 1.5 inches thick..I cannot imagine what else they would want....yikes!!

When we filed our petition in August we were so excited. We kept looking at average NOA2 times and we were like "if everything goes smoothly we should be getting it around this time."

So that time frame has finally came and in the mail we get something from CSC! Sweet NOA2 right?

Wrong. Big disappointment with a big fat RFE. I was sad and sad to tell the fiance. They requested more evidence that we have met in that time frame. So we gather everything that we could, even the same stuff from the initial petition, and turned it in. Few days later it finally came :) . So do not worry about an RFE. In our experience it usually means a NOA2 is coming up.


I meant filed in April *

Thanks..the only thing I cna think about is she got refused four times last year for a B2 visa to visit me in the USA. She put on the visitor application I was a friend.which was friends with benefits LOL. Then in December we got engaged and January I submitted the paperwork. Reason for B2 refusal? She didnt make enough money to travel/visit the USA LOL...so she increased her bank balance..same refusal...maybe they want to know why she wanted to visit me so badly?

You should try finding a co sponsor maybe that has the finances.
