Dear Fellow VJers,

Does anyone know how long do they usually take to response my RFE?

I have received a notification that they have got the RFE I sent on May 22nd. I wonder how long will it take for me to hear from them again?

Is it usually followed by decision or NOA2?

Thank you for your time.

Thanks AgnettaHoo. We're praying it's an easy one too.

They required a legible copy of my annulment decree. We sent that one in and got another RFE. Wonder why they don't just send in all requests for more information in one request. :(

I hope you get your NOA2 soon! Best of luck :)

Mine took 9 or 10 days, but it was a simple one, missed a question. Others have waited weeks, sometimes longer than a month unfortunately. There really isn't any consistency. It's generally less than 2 weeks, but there have been exceptions. I started an April RFE thread, there are still a few member there still waiting.
