i-485 RFE more evidence than requested

[margoalex 0]

Hi all!

I got an RFE letter from USCIS requesting more financial docs. My husband and I have prepared those already. The thing is that with my initial package I haven't included any proof of relationship. Now I'm thinking to include some photos and other stuff together with financial docs. It won't hurt, will it?

Not necessary, and not advised to clog the files with extras.  You can bring those things to your interview.  You did include the marriage certificate though, right?

Thank you for your reply. Yes, I did. I'm just worried that they will send the second RFE requesting evidence and it'll delay the case.

The only 'evidence' they want/need for the initial application is your MC, the latest tax return + supporting documents that you have (W2, 1099 etc) OR latest tax transcript (optional you can send the tax documents from the last 3 years, but that's only advisable if the USC barely made the 125%). As long as you sent that, they won't RFE you for more evidence. USCIS is required to interview everyone that goes through AOS, so loading your application is unnecessary. And like Jorgedig said, it's not advised to send documents with an RFE that they didn't request.

Thanks for your piece of advice. I've sent financial docs only.

So what happens after they review the RFE? Do they approve case once the RFE is approved?

Every AOS application gets an interview. So if the RFE was for AOS they'll check if everything is complete and then put you in the que for an interview at your local office.

If the RFE was for EAD/AP and they receive the right documents, they'll (eventually) make a decision on your application.

OH my  RFE was for AOS and I know I will have to go through interview. But I think you have answered my question. I guess once my RFE is checked and I am put in que for interview, my AP and EAD will be processed.
