Received an RFE for Medicals in March. Sent them in April 7th. Still haven't received any confirmation notice or interview scheduled from USCIS. Extremely frustrating, as I am trying to apply for school in the fall and it's getting close. It's just so frustrating, especially when they ask you to submit something, you do so as quick as you can, and then just radio silence

Just had my medical. They are doing a titer test as well, so thankfully, I don't have to provide those records. I believe I'm up to date with everything thankfully

I'm currently in the US and my I-131 has expired, so not opportunity to go back to Ireland unfortunately. In Ireland, I received all my vaccinations through a national program, which was provided by the health department, who are also the ones who don't keep a national database. Go figure!

I just received RFE for I-693 for Medicals. I received all my mandatory shots in Ireland while in Elementary School (MMR/Polio/HiB/ Hep B) but they don't keep a national database of vaccination history. Will this be a problem when I go for my medical, or will they be able to tell from my blood work that I have had these vaccinations? Thanks Happy St Patrick's Day everyone 🇮🇪

Can anyone advise me on whether or not I should renew my AP? I-360 approved this week, and my AP is expiring in February 2023. I am seeing on the USCIS website that I-131 is taking appox 7 months for renewal. Do you think it is worthwhile renewing this, or just waiting it out until my I-485 is completed? (I-485 filed in July 2019, held in Abeyance January 2020. NYC field office, but AR-11 filed in June 2021 change of address to Massachusetts) Thanks

Finally, after 34 months of Hell, some good news! Timeline: July 2019- Filed I-485/I-130/I-131/I-765 December 2019- Combo Card Received January 2020- Interview Scheduled February 2020- Filed I-360. Asked USCIS to hold I-485 in abeyance March 2020- USCIS receives application October 2020- File for renewal on I-765/I-131 February 2021 I-765 renewal approved. Somehow, I-131 renewal has been separated. October 2021- Still no I-131 approval. File for 2nd I-765 renewal February 2022- I-131 approved (16 Months Later!!) Paper Copy w/photo. Not Combo card May 2022- RFE (Didn't submit Psychological Evaluation with my I-360, as (former) attorney said that a letter from my therapist was adequate. August 2022- Correspondence has been received by USCIS (PsychEval) September 2022- 2nd I-765 renewal approved (2 Year Validity) And finally, today, November 30th 2022- I-360 'We Ordered Your New Card' It's been a long long road with lots of worry, stress and anxiety. Now I can finally take a deep breath. Feels like the weight of the world has been lifted off my shoulders. Thank you to everyone in this group for sharing your stories. It has given me something to stay strong throughout this difficult process. For all those still waiting, I feel your pain. Your day will come soon, and you will feel the joy that I am feeling today!

I'm out of NY for the summer. Working in Cape Cod, MA. Is the evaluation completed usually in a single session?

How do you find somewhere to get a psych evaluation? What are the criteria that USCIS are looking for for this? How long does it take to complete? I work in a seasonal town in the North East, and work 6 days a week, so its very difficult to get significant time off work to travel for it.

Yes, this is my first RFE. Filed March 2020, got 3 PFs.

I didn't submit a psychological evaluation. I was attending therapy sessions and got a letter from my therapist. Due to the pandemic, I moved states and so I was unable to continue my sessions. With the cost of my divorce, lawyer fees and with the pandemic affecting my job (hospitality) I was unable to afford private therapy sessions over the last 18 months. I am very fortunate that I have a close group of friends who I can lean on when I get overwhelmed. I will definitely look into obtaining some more professional help and a professional psychological evaluation after this, as I honestly don't know how I can continue to cope. It feels as if my whole world has been pulled out from under me with one letter from USCIS

I have got a huge feeling of anxiety and worry about my Vawa case. After over 2 years of waiting, I received an RFE stating that I need to supply more evidence of Extreme Cruelty for my case. USCIS claim that since none of the 3rd party affidavits claim to be witness to any abuse, that they hold little to no weight. I was never a victim of physical abuse, and all the abuse I suffered was psychological. Abandonment, apathy, and constant substance abuse by my ex wife. I attended therapy sessions for months after the breakdown of my marriage. This happened behind closed doors, in which I had to battle these demons internally; alone in my own head, thinking how the woman i love could treat my like this. I have no policr reports, no pictures of psychical injuries. I wrote, in as much detail as I could, about the incidents that have occurred during my marriage. I still suffer to this day with intimacy and self image issues, thinking that I will never be able to overcome these. I have regular thoughts of just giving up on life, thinking that none of this is even worth the continued pain, anxiety and stress that I go through everyday. I am a young, healthy man in the prime of my life. I am just feeling so lost and overwhelmed with this RFE I just received. Just as I thought I was getting my life somewhat back on track, I get a gut shot like this. I really do not know what I am supposed to do. I just feel so overwhelmed and lost by all of this.

Question for anyone who has traveled on AP before: What documents am I required to bring with my upon my return to the US? I have my AP document and my passport, but am I required to bring any of my other documents related to either my I-360 or my I-485 (which has been held in abeyance) Thanks

I received an RFE notice email today from USCIS. I am a March 2020 filer, and I am slightly worried, since I felt I submitted every bit of evidence I had to support my case. Hopefully, I will be able to overcome this and send in sufficient documents for approval 🙏🏻

Thanks for your help. I just checked my A number on the EOIR website and it said no case found, so I assume that means I am not in removal proceedings, correct?

That seems to be the consensus of everyone I've spoken to. It doesn't make any sense to me at all, and I've been researching any of the possible ways in which I need an infopass appointment, and haven't been able to find anything pertaining to my situation
