RFE / NOA2 Question

[redpixie 0]

Just a short one. As most of you who have kept up with my constant worrying know, my fiance and I are living together outside the US. Our home address is in Ireland, and that is the address we used when filing out I-129F. We have used his parent's address in the states as the address we will be moving to when we get the K-1, and the USCIS are using this as the US postal address. My question is if we happen to get the dreaded RFE, will it be sent to us in Ireland or to his folks in Texas? If it is sent to the Texas address, it will take almost two weeks for it to arrive here once his mom has posted it (gotta love the Irish postal service!), so obviously this is going to put more of a delay on things for us.

Also, is the NOA2 going to be sent to our address here as well as his folk's addy?

Okay, one more thing. We signed up for the USCIS online case checking service on Friday. We used my fiance's email address for the updates. We didn't get an email back saying that we registed for email updates, although it says on the site we are registered. Is it normal not to get an initial confirmation and am I worrying about nothing here.

Thanks guys and girls!

redpixie,

With regard to possible RFEs you do have a valid concern. There are pluses and minuses associated with the USC staying overseas during the immigration process. If one has the choice they weigh the pluses and minuses, make their choice, and live with any consequences.

Hey Yodrak,

Thanks for the reply. I'm about 70% certain we will get the RFE as we forgot to include our letters of intent and sent G325 forms (2 pages) rather than the G325A (4 pages). Others have said that it might be fine, seens as we live together with regards to the intent situation, and we can give those to the embassy, while others have said that we're likely to get an RFE.

We both think that the pluses outweigh the minuses and staying together throughout everything is the only option for us. We can't stand to be away from one another for even an hour, so the prospect of us being apart for any length of time is not an option. I guess we're lucky to be able to stay together and we know that we don't want to ever be away from one another. We were apart for about a month when I returned to the UK as he had some family reasons why he had to stay in the States. That was awful for us and neither of us want to have to go through that again.

RP,

I would consider submitting a change of address to your fiance's parent's address in Texas. Having things sent to Ireland will not only add time to the application process, but can add all sorts of complications. This process is slow and painful enough ... RFE or not.

Best,

MM and MS

Changing the postal address is something we should consider. As I say, the Irish ostal system is pretty ropey at the best of times (off thepoint, sending DVD's back to netflicks in Dublin from Cork took us over a week!). I'm going to keep an eye on the case progress via the website and see what shows up. If we get notice of possible RFE or NOA2 and nothing comes to either us or my fiance's parents place after 2 weeks of notification online, we'll have to ask for them to be resent.

Thanks!
