I-693 RFE: My experience.

[Dirty harry 25]

Hi everyone I know there has been some confusion as to whether the I-693 has to be sent with your AOS application.I finally have the answer. I received a letter from USCIS yesterday(not an RFE) that says in summary:

" While processing your initial evidence for AOS we noticed you either did not send the I-693 or it is incomplete. If an interview is required for your application bring the I-693 to your interview, if an interview is not required you will receive an RFE at a later date to send the I-693 paperwork. DO NOT SEND in anything at this time it will slow down your case processing."

My wife's parents are required to have an interview as they came on b/2 visas. So we will bring the I-693 to the interview. So the answer to whether the i-693 is required at time of filing is, it depends. if your required to have interview, then no, if you wont need an interview yes it is required.

Hope this helps someone,

Harry

I delayed my AOS application by a week and a half because of the I-693. Better safe than sorry.

King, That's a great point, if you can send it it why not? We also sent a very detailed letter explaining uscis own policies on the matter, some immigration officers might not know it recently changed. We were in a position where it wouldn't work out to wait. But at least this is some kind of info on the subject.
