    RFE for Birth Certificate for I-130 and I-485(Mother)

    Find somebody, from your side, from your in laws side, in laws' inlaws side. They just need the paperwork to be present in the file. I don't think they'll cross verify the relationship between the person and your mom. Any neighbors perhaps?

    RFE for Birth Certificate for I-130 and I-485(Mother)

    You need 2 affidavits and one non availability for your mother. They are insisting on this. They are not accepting school leaving certificate, passport issued by the government etc. Atleast in your case, you got an RFE before hand, we had to wait till the interview to know baout this and we...

    Processing Times - What do they mean??

    What do the processing times posted in the USCIS website mean? Can we open a case with them if it's past the date? Norfolk, VA processing time states Aug 16 2011 as of Dec 31 2011. When I go to the specific case query screen, I see the time line as 4.5 months. Also, Vermont Service Center...

    One more affidavit, I-94 with officer, travel plans???

    I guess the case is in a bigger black hole now. If I get the additional affidavit, will it be possible for me to send it even if I do not receive any communication from the officer/USCIS? Will an infopass appointment work? Right now, the case has exceeded the normal processing window.

    One more affidavit, I-94 with officer, travel plans???

    OMG.. Will it take a couple of months for supervisor review? The way the IO talked sounded as if she'll be sending it by week end. I think I should start looking at CP option then...

    One more affidavit, I-94 with officer, travel plans???

    that's what is confusing me, the status has not changed to RFE. The IO said give me a chance to run it by my boss and lets see what he says. And if they require additional documents,she will contact me by mail and i have 87 days to send her the documents.

    One more affidavit, I-94 with officer, travel plans???

    Your guess is right, both the forms are in the same status as before. 485 - Testing and 130 - Initial Review.

    One more affidavit, I-94 with officer, travel plans???

    Yes, I keep checking hte status, I-130 has NOT been approved yet. I sent a i-824 with this application. Can I send another one now with the same info and convert it into CP?

    Thanks for the luck! In the documents you have listed, we had submitted Non Availability, 1 affidavit and copy of his Secondary School Leaving Certificate (SSLC) with his date of birth and his father's name. But the Officer said that it does not list his mother's name. I did check a copy of...

    I think she is convinced with the photo album for marriage affidavits, it's the birth affidavit that was bothering her.. How soon do you get reply/letter in such cases?
