RFE

[stevenw60 0]

So I looked at my long birth certificate from Virginia again and its says "void without watermark" in large letters. I really think this might be the RFE, unfortunatly with the new VA birth certificates if you make a photocopy it seems to make them void and not valid.

JakeandAli,

What evidence did you send in the 2nd time you didn't the 1st time? I'm thinking of collecting everything I need just in case tomorrow. I mean I really can't get anything else as far as stamps and everythign, guess I can send it all in again and highlight it, maybe add some more pictures?

Sounds like it is likely your birth certificate...but who knows. Just to answer your question. I searched my emails and found a couple E-ticket receipts (since we didn't save boarding pass stubs), also sent bank statements and credit card statements showing proof of purchase of airline tickets, my credit card statements and receipts showing purchases made in his home town in the UK, FILM DATED photographs (who has those anymore with digital cameras), and I sent in a letter from my boss on letter head verifying how Jake and I met and that we have had an onging relationship. We also resent copies of all pages of our passports showing entry stamps. I highlighted ALL pertanent evidence this time and put sticky notes next to each for further explaination.

my RFE read, "...The primary evidence may include airline ticket stubs and receipts (that indicate month, day, and year), copies of passport pages that show identification page and admission stamps, military order(s), letter from Commanding Officer, or any evidence that will help USCIS to determine that the petitioner has met the beneficiary within the two years. The secondary evidence may be film dated photographs of the petitioner and beneficiary together. The following DOES NOT constitute evidence of meeting: disc, videos, emails, letters, phone bills, and greeting cards."

The first time around, I sent lots of photos, passport pages, and tons of emails. Good Luck.

If the problem was your birth certificate, remember the I-129F form says that you can submit birth certificate or copies of all the pages in your passport. That's what we submitted, and I read from other users that did the same thing and it worked out.

Good luck with your RFE!
