More Information to read.

My RFE says no medical results found. The USCIS is supposed to have your K1 medical files, but sometimes lose them or fail to match them up with your AOS. Do not get another exam unless you get an RFE that says they do not have results of your medical. It means they lost them, but you are probably stuck with paying for a new exam. Those kinds of RFE's are not about the immunizations or the form I-693; they are because USCIS failed to match up your other medical exam results with your AOS application.

What if I only had one dose of MMR and it's marked "insufficient time interval"? Do I need to another dose and must I see a civil surgeon before AOS?

NO you do not need to see a civil surgeon unless USCIS loses the whole medical file you turned in at POE. If you were up to date the day that DS-3025 was signed, then you're okay without getting 2nd or 3rd doses. You can get them for your health, or you can not get them ever. It was not medically appropriate for you to get dose 2 on top of dose 1. There's a time interval for doses. So you get a waiver for "insufficient time interval" if that is marked on your DS-3025.

If you are one of the unlucky ones with a lost medical, then you will have to get a full medical again. By then, enough time would have passed for dose 2 so expect the CS to say you need it. Hopefully it won't come to that.

If you just chose not to get a second dose that was due (because it was more than 4 weeks since dose 1) then you wouldn't have that "insufficient time interval" waiver marked on your DS-3025. It was medically fine to have the second dose and you didn't. You aren't complete and have no waiver excuse.

What if I don't have a DS-3025?

If you are positive that you got the needed shots, then actually mailing in a DS-3025 photocopy is not necessary. The original form is with your other medical results and was turned over to USCIS at POE. That's actually the one that counts because it remained in the "chain of custody" so you didn't have an opportunity to alter it. The photocopy isn't really an official copy and is more for a reminder that you got complete at your visa exam. Of course without having a copy, you don't have the opportunity to see if the rest of the form was completed correctly.

Question: If I were to get a RFE for USCIS not having my medical exam records , in what phase would I expect this RFE? (After it has been sent to chicago office or after my file has been received at the local  office?

You wouldnt receive an RFE because they give everyone an opportunity to bring a new medical to the interview. If your K1 medical packet was found missing from your file, it would be recognized only at the interview. You would then be required to get one done before final approval.

i never get RFE..but i think it depends on your case..some people received rfe after the file has been received... some people submit the missing document before their interview and some applicants also bring their missing documents during interview.

 

sorry if i cant give an exact answer to your question.

These are just automatic emails, I get the same even for my first application who was rejected more than a month ago. They don't really have any value, to me they just send them so people stop calling USCIS because they don't have updates.

Thank you very much

How long did it take for you all to get your biometrics appointment letter? We sent our AOS 11-19 received NOAs/text around 10 days after but still haven't received the biometrics letter. Now it is almost 3 weeks since we filed. I know that typically is scheduled pretty quickly so the sooner we can be aware of where we need to go the better so we can continue the waiting game ha.

Hi Everyone! Anyone here who filed from Hawaii? Where do they process the papers for Hawaii applicant?

Hi guys, I see from the app that our fingerprint review was completed on November 30th.  Is it true that for K1'ed AOS applicants, interview for AOS can come in as little as 90 days after biometrics?

 

Sorry to be a little clueless, I followed the K1 process like a hawk but we are kind of taking it easy with the AOS.

This wait for the EAD is just killing me right now. I just don't know how to stop worrying about it

Hi guys! Is there a deadline of filing i 485? My now husband entered the US on Sept 05, 2018, we got married October 15 still working on documents needed for i 485. Do they have a deadline of filing AOS after marriage?

Not sure. Some people say you have to file before your I-94 expires but I also know some people who applied after 2 or 3 years due to financial issues and they were fine.

Everyday that you do not file AOS beyond the 90 days, you no longer have lawful status and you are accumulating days of overstay. While most days of overstay are forgiven after you apply for AOS because you have married as you were supposed to, during that time of unlawful status, you can be brought into immigration proceedings. While most judges will only force you to file for AOS at that time to avoid deportation, with the current government, you never know what new policies may develop.
