480 days even after RFE ?
PD: 02/01/00
RD: 09/06/01
ND: 10/10/01
RFE: 11/22/02
The Case status for me at the INS Web site says
" On December 11, 2002, we received your response to our request for evidence or information. It is taking between 450 and 480 days for us to process this kind of case. However, because preliminary processing was complete before we requested the additional material, the remaining processing time for this stage of your case is approximately 480 days. You will receive a written decision on this case."
That is 480 days even after RFE response!
May be this is standard message.
Or a safe message.
