Preventing RFE Beforehand

[Nitsua0895 11]

I filed in late March of 2022 and recently heard that I should have sent a copy of both the front and back of my birth certificate. I only sent the front side. Is it possible to go ahead and sent the copy of the back side to prevent a possible RFE?

No, do not send unsolicited evidence.

I don't think you need the backside unless there's something important on it, all my info was on the front.  My lawyer never asked for the back and he's done plenty of these.

OP

 

As ROcio0010 points out the I-797 u received from USCIS actually says "not to send anything,  they will contact u if further info is needed"

 

If u have questions ,  u can ask Emma the Robot

 

Why not send now?  Because when they recieived the petition,  it was entered into a computer and the actual packet sits waiting with thousands of others till someone can work on it (as my most recent notice said  under processing  times  "however,  systems will show only that the case has been received and the processing status will not have changed , because we will be working on other cases that were filed earlier than one"

 

so, until immigration officer works on your case ,  it sits in a pile

RFE's for this issue are not that scary / have the copies ready to send out in case it may be needed

Also once you get RFE you can send them extra evidence of your ongoing relationship. This is what I did and also a former USCIS officer has reported on this forum that it helps your case.
