Post RFE response times?

Does anyone know about the processing times once VSC receives the RFE documents?
Or what is the procedure once they receive the documents? Will I have to go for some interview?

Any help is much appreciated.
 
In My case

INS Received the documents on 7/31 and approved on 8/13. Does not mean this is the time line as there are lot of people who sent RFE response earlier and not approved yet etc. Only thing is for sure, when INS receives RFE Reply it will directly go to the officer working on the case. So, the time to assign etc are eliminated. Unless they transfer to the local office there wont be an interview. Transfer is usually not done after an RFE. So, good luck.
 
No AD after RFE reply

My RD7/19/01 RFE 7/11/02 Reply to INS rcvd 8/3/02 but no Approvals till now ??? How long should i wait??? I am seeing lots of people getting approvales in 4-7 days after RFE rcvd. by INS???
 
Guys Help Me - received rfe

RFE date - 8/15
RD - 8/7/01
ND - 9/27

They ask for H1 extension, employer letter, 3 months paystubs and Tax returns.

My employer has given me letter with all details and he posted my salary as x$/hr and not as yearly amount as i get paid hourly.

Will this be a problem???

Thanks in advance!!!

This is giving me chills..for a lil while quincy's reply made me feel better :(
Does INS update the AVM once they receive the RFE papers?
 
I got an RFE requesting employment Letter, 2001 tax returns and 2001 W2 on August 19 th. My Lawyer replied back on july 27th. INS got it on july 31st. Once again the officer issued RFE on august 9th for Employement Letter:confused: . This is how INS works. He(The officer) got the employment letter along with all the documents. The officer did not chekced all the documents and issued another RFE. My lawyer sent employment letter along with paystubs(Eventhough the officer did not requested them I had asked lawyer to send them so that there won't be any confusion) to day.
 
Hi all,
My GC was filed as a dependent. My husband’s case was approved on Jul22, 2002. And, I was issued an RFE on Jul 23, 2002.

My RFE was medical related.
We responded to the RFE a week later and the INS received it on Aug 7 2002.
My case was approved on Aug 14, 2002.

My case details are:
RD: 08/14/01
ND: 10/24/01
RFE issued on: 07/23/02
RFE response received by INS: 08/07/02
AD: 08/14/02

I do not know if the response time to a dependent spouse GC RFE is related to that for a primary applicant GC RFE. But, just thought I’d post my case experience all the same.

I wish all of you good luck with your GC approvals.
:)

RD 7/19/01 and FP 4/23/02 (because of INS notice sending mistake)
RFE 7/11/02 and RFE rdvc by INS 8/3/02...
NO AD ????? What the hell VSC is doing??
EAD: 01-26********
i am seeing lots of approvals of AUG and SEPT. and RFE's but god knows when my day will come ????
 
My lawyer has sent my RFE papers to INS on 08/15 and I guess the waiting game starts all over again.

BTW, per my lawyer:
Between RFE from VSC and case being transferred to local INS - it is better to get a RFE from VSC.
Don't know what to believe anymore :(

Mine is almost 3 weeks

RD : 7/02/01
ND : 8/23/01
FP : 11/27/01
RFE issued : 7/22/02
RFE recvied by INS : 7/31/02

I'm still waiting for my approval.:)
 
I also received the RFE on 08/09/2002 for RD 08/06/2001. Acc to my RFE I need to sumbit
1. Last 6 months of my pay stubs
2. Income tax return for year 2001

I had switched my job back in Feb 2002 after the completion of 180 days. My previous employer had also sent a letter to INS informig about my quitting them.

Should I still send the employment letter from my new company or only the documents being asked for?
If I don't send the employemnt letter will it be OK for the approving officer since the emloyer on my 2001 Inome Tax return is different than the one in my last 6 months pay stubs.

I will really appreciate the reply.

Thanks,
 
Just to be on the safe side I would say that submit the employment letter as well.
It is better to send additional info rather than having INS coming back and saying now we need more info which will only delay yr process. Also u may want to send them the letter that yr previous employer had sent to them saying u were quitting.
My 2cents....

BTW, Can someone please answer my question about AVM :
Is AVM updated once the INS receives RFE papers?
