    The letter of Intent is fine to be scanned.   No RFE's have been issued for wet signatures since 2013 when the requirements changed. 

     

    Save your money and scan away! 

    Unshakable Faith, I'm curious where you found that info about the requirements changing in 2013 and no RFE's for wet signatures? Might be helpful for all here to put this issue to rest.

     

    Thanks !!

    Okay I checked the 1-129F instructions and it mentions nothing about wet/original signature. And also something on visatutor that says a scanned signature is fine. 

     

    Guess I'll just send a scanned copy....

  3. Well folks it turns out the RFE I received was solely because my fiance didn't specifically state in a letter her intent to marry me. I'm certain she included a history of relationship, but maybe it wasn't specific enough about intent. 

     

    So as soon as she wakes up and stops kicking herself (she's in the PI now and I'm in the US) she'll throw together a letter, email to me, and I'll print and FedEx this afternoon. 

     

    Wow, what a relief. 

  4. So Keith and Monica, I'm happy for you that your RFE was a minor thing like that. I'm hoping mine is too. Expecting it to arrive mid-week hopefully.

     

    I'm curious, I saw your fiance is from Philippines. Mine too. Did you have an agency assist you in the PI with your application? I did, and I'm kinda surprised I still got an RFE. But if it's something simple I'll give them a pass...

  5. For those who have sent additional evidence, how long did it take from the time they received the evidence and the NOA2 was received? 

     

    And any ideas on what kind of stuff they might want? I even used a visa service in Philippines to help us, and gave them tons of evidence. Proof we lived together for a couple of years, finances no problem, intent to marry....

     

    Geez.

    The online status of USCIS seems working now, at least for us. We received text message notification one day after NOA2 date. Also, speaking with Tier 2 officer brought some luck to us. It could be a coincidence though.

     

    Sent: March 30, 2017

    Received: April 3, 2017

    NOA1: April 6, 2017

    NOA2: August 14, 2017

    Text message notification: August 15, 2017

    Hard copy of NOA2: August 17, 2017

     

    So the first indication you received of an NOA2 was via text message? Did you have to sign up for that service, or did they just get the phone number from your application?

     

    Thanks

  7. Well today is day 140 since they received my application (March 30), and informed delivery says no mail today. And the USCIS status shows no change. 

    I can't imagine they're putting together an RFE since my application had to be 3" thick with tons of evidence. 

     

    BTW, I downloaded the USCIS app for Android, though I'm not sure it gives me much more information than the website status. Though it does give me a notice in the morning about status of some applications with similar numbers to mine. Not sure that means much... 

  8. Hey all....

     

    Hoping someone can give me some positive news, or at least some hope. Today is day 139 since they received my application (received March 30), and my NOA1 is dated April 19. I assume it took a while to transfer from Texas to California or something (19 days?).

     

    Anyway, no NOA2 yet, and it's driving me nuts. My fiance is in the Philippines, and we're hoping this is the week. But every day my Informed Delivery shows nothing, and the USCIS website shows nothing. No RFE's. Nothing. 

     

    My receipt number ends in 93396, and I saw earlier in the thread that some 80000's have been approved.  

     

    Anyway, does anyone have any hopeful words? I'm not sure how to check which ones have been approved or where they are.

     

    Thanks much.
