RFE Cover Letter

[MorganB 0]

Hey everyone! I was issued an RFE on January 28th, 2016 and I just received it in the mail today. I saw on another thread that RFE's require cover letters, but the thread was in regard to lack of evidence for that couple. My RFE is that I just forgot to check a box. Do I still need to write a cover letter for this RFE? Or just send it in with the original blue RFE cover ontop? Can't wait to hear back!!!

Based on the instructions, I don't think a cover letter is necessary since yours is not a unique case. However, I would do so anyway since it's not that hard to make. if they actually wanted a cover letter, at least you got that covered. If they didn't want one, then they can just set aside what you made; no harm done.

I agree with immrsregie that you might as well include a cover letter.

Having said that, we responded to a RFE without one.

We were issued the RFE for not including enough detail about the internet site through which we met.

They wanted proof we didn't meet through an international marriage broker.

We sent back 30+ pages of proof and just the blue sheet on the top of it all.

I didn't know about cover letters at that point.

So, while it may not be required that you include one, sending a cover letter may add to your peace of mind.

Good luck!
