They may have "miss-placed" it. Just be glad they found out now and not 2 years down the line when you file your ROC. There is a change it will make it's way into your file (mine did).

I sailed through the AOS in part because I had a marked "complete" D-3025 in my AOS package. That was enough to clear the AOS at the time but not enough for the ROC.

If they do request a new 693 just bite the bullet and get one, assuming you have no other proof that one was already submitted. It's just not worth the hassle and stress otherwise in my opinion.

Yes. Hopefully they will " find " it.
The only proofs  we have at the moment is the fact that by the government's own procedures she would NEVER have been allowed to go through Immigration at JFK without handing it over and her I-94 proves she came in legally.
Also we do have a copy of the vaccine record so that's related  I would guess.
Today she sent an email to the medical center she used in the philippines requesting a copy of her file if possible.

When entering the US, it is Customs & Border patrol that handles it so I thought IF we get an RDE to request through my Congressman's office that they contact CBD and maybe the Embassy asking for a copy.

If they none of these things produce results quickly I will of course pay for a new medical because  we are at their mercy but I will not like it. lol

@Aquabac I should clarify they got the RFE for not having the polio vaccine done, not because USCIS lost their medical. I still think they could find it.

We had her Polio vaccine done here and uploaded the documet.

That's another example of the  BS they make us do extra.

The beneficiary must go to the approved medical center and  get all the vaccinations required.
But they do not require the polio vaccine there.
But after you here if you don't get one you could get an RFE for one.
#######?
 I am a simple logical person. If it is required then give it then!

We had the same issue and had to get Jaycel's polio vaccine done here before the interview and find a Civil Surgeon who would do the vaccine assessment part of the I-693 for us... The problem isn't USCIS here, they are just following the CDC guidelines that were implemented in May 2024. The problem is SLEC there in Manila, who decided to wait 2 years to start giving the polio vaccine to applicants. The CDC changed the requirements in May 2024 and SLEC literally just implemented the change in April of this year.

This will be an exercise in futility and waste the precious little time you will have to respond to the RFE. If USCIS does not have it, that means it either got lost in the transfer from CBP to USCIS or USCIS placed it with the wrong A-File. Regardless, if you get an RFE, I would strongly recommend calling to make an appointment at a Civil Surgeon's office immediately. Bring a copy of the DS-3025 and proof of the Polio vaccine to the CS office so they can transcribe the vaccines to the I-693

 My intention is do do them simultaneously.
And some of it now before we have even receive an RFE.
We have sent emails, requesting copies already.
We will contact CBP tomorrow as well.
It may work. It may not. Costs us nothing to try
IF, we get an RFE we will make an appointment with a USCIS approved physician immediately. 
To wait would be foolish
I doubt an appointment will occur immediately and while waiting for an appointment I will contact my congressman's office and request assistance.
No time will be wasted.

They have us by the proverbial short hairs and i know it.

My manila envelope was missing for probably well over a year. It held up my ROC and it took me filing the N400 to jar the thing loose again.

You might try calling CBP at JFK itself, if they hosed things at her entry.
