HELP - I just got an email saying they have mailed another RFE Is this really bad What could they want?

I sent the police letter back already....

Congrats!

And thank you for the good mojo leasel! Keep it coming!

Thank you Euro!

How is everything going with you?

And CONGRATS leasel on your approval!

Some good news - I was informed today that I got a job! I had the interview last week. It is for a teaching fellow position at the University of Virginia!!

Just hope I get the green card now. It would be kind of ironic if I don't!

Kiki

WOW! That's super news! I'm really really tickled for you Kiki!

I don't think you need to worry about getting the card. But it stinks waiting doesn't it?

Thank you Rebecca! I am quite amazed actually. I feel very lucky - at one stage I felt in a "hole" and couldn't see an end to this all. The college is great and so are the staff in the science department. I am very excited - I'll be starting work next week! I am also terrifed!

I hope that you and Wes do hear something very soon. The waiting in limbo is dreadful. I can't believe I have been here 8 months already! My AOS was held up by my fingerprints which were "illegible". I got an RFE for that and had to obtain a local police certificate. I am kind of nervous as I was unsure what to send back exactly. I know they have received it, so the waiting begins again...

Keep us posted - let's hope you hear something positive back real soon!

Kiki

I hope all is going well for all you other CSC transferees...

Well, I was touched again! Hope this is good news....I start work next week and it would be GREAT to have the GC to show my new employers.

Before my EAD, my license was only valid for 3 months. When I got my EAD, I went with that and all the other documents and they gave me it valid as long as the EAD is valid. Once I get the green Card, I'll go back and get it valid for the full period.

Congrats jmk!

Leasel, I will be teaching in Wise, SW Virginia. UVA has a college here in the mountains! It's a great place.

And, I got touched again today - hope this is good news!

Kiki

Scotty, I think it takes about 80 days to get the EAD. This seems to be the average from what I have seen. Mine took 84 days.

Sorry to hear of your long wait Rebecca - we are also a bit delayed at this AOS stage after everything else went really smoothly. My fingerprints were illegible so we got an RFE. I had to obtain a local police record.

Today I was touched...I am still a bit worried as I still am not sure if the Police Letter I sent from my local sheriff was exactly what they wanted in the RFE. Guess I'll find out soon!

Excellent news! Congrats

Just popping in to say "Hi"....lots happening! As you can see from my signature, I got an RFE - my fingerprints were illegible and twice got rejected!

I had to get a Police Certificate from my local sheriff to show I have no record. I am now waiting to hear back as I was not sure what exactly I had to provide...

I also had a job interview this week! Wish me luck! It is a fantastic career job (if I get it) so I'm pretty nervous...

CONGRATS Purple Hibiscus!

I got this email this evening from the USCIS. I think I understand it, but please could any one tell me if they got this or what you interpret it to mean...

Thank you so much,

Kiki

Lets hope this is a good omen for us all still waiting...

Have a great weekend all!

Welcome to the forum new CSC transferees!

Well, I went to the local police yesterday and obtained a letter "of good conduct" as my RFE requesetd. I posted it off today... now just have to wait and hope it is what they wanted

Kiki

Thank you so much! I'll go and do that this afternoon.

I want to return my RFE to California (CSC) today. I want it to get there as soon as possible, but also want to track it and ensure that it gets there safely.

Please can anyone let me know how they returned their RFE to CSC? (express, registered, FedEx etc...)

Many thanks,

Kiki

Alison, after you are married and apply for your AOS (EAD and/or AP), at some stage after that, the USCIS will send you an appointment letter detailing when and where you have to go. It will be at the USCIS office closest to you.

I'm not sure about the children - maybe someone else can advise...

Good luck for the wedding

Kiki

Yay! for Minfay and Aztoca

Thank you so much for the replies.

I phoned USCIS again today and I spoke to an officer there who was very helpful. I explained in detail and she said that it is a stock letter normally sent to those applying for US citizenship but that it only applies to the time I have been in the USA.

I can only hope that is really what they want

I then phoned the local town police and asked, and they told me to go on Monday to the courthouse with picture ID and it should be possible to obtain this paper.

I just hope it wil be exactly what they want! I guess I won't really be sure until they receive it at CSC...

Phew!

Thank you all for the replies so far...I will try and clarify this tomorrow by phoning the USCIS again.

According to the reciprocity list, and following on from what the US embassy in London told me before I got the K1 visa, I can only obtain police certificates from the UAE and Kuwait (where I have lived before) if I am physically present in those countries and resident.

Does anyone know how I go on about getting a "Certification of Good Conduct" from my local county sheriff here in the US and how long does it take?

Has anyone else ever had this particular RFE?

I'm so worried about this....

Thank you so much - I'll try an email and see if I can get a reply.

I also tried phoning the USCIS number. I was told by one officer there that it just refers to the time I have been living in the USA, but then why does it ask for the last 5 years. I'd really like it clarified...

If anyone has any help I'd be so appreciative!

Kiki

Is there a way I contact CSC directly to inquire about this?
