Hey Guys!
As some of you already know, I have got an RFE on Dec 19,2002 asking for my employment letter. We have replied back to INS on 27th of December. Do you guys know, how long it will take to reach INS, and getting updated on-line? Also how long do they take to make a decision based on the RFE?

Please let me know if you have any idea!

Thanking you in advance!!
 
For me, they took 3 days for the update. I also talked to an IIO.

RFE reply on DEC 17th (Fedex)
Received and Online updated on 20th.

I was told the case was assignment back to the same officer on 23rd.

No time line for the decesion.
 
Thanks for info, Lotus74!
Just wanted to let you know that online message was updated on Jan 3rd as
"On January 2nd we have received the response from INS and since the necessary process has already completed it will take 480 days to complete this process."

Please let me know if you have any idea what's going on here!

Thanks in advance,
Waiting 4 GC.
 
Hi Guys,
I have newly joined to this thread. I just wanted inform that my RFE was responded on DEC 23 and my message was updated on Jan 02 . I think may be due to Holidays it was delayed.

Also Gurus,
I had an RFE in which INS was asking my employer to pAY the current prevailing wages, which my employer does not want to pay ( it is around increase of 8K from my current salary) . So the employer responde that due to economic conditions it is difficult to pay that wage. Does anyone know if this effects my I-485 approval significantly or it should be OK ??? Thanks a lot

Current Prevailing Wage

Humdard,

I make less money too than the current prevailing wage for my job description. But my lawyer got a letter from my employer stating that they will pay me the current prevailing wage after the GC is approved. We did this at the time of applying for I485 so hopefully I will not get a RFE. But hope this helps you if you have a problem. Good luck.

I just recieved an RFE for Employment Verification, does that mean they are already done with all the time consuming IBIS check, and now they are waiting to approve it or what. Does any one know whats next after I respond to the RFE. Thanks in advance.
 
RAJ5 i am right now making the wages equal to my prevailing wages but there is one more hurdle called Proferred wages which INS gets from the survey. So while filing our petition our employers will state the prevailing wages they pay in LC, but INS comes back asking about proferred wage (that is according to INS survey for that position,for current time the wage is something like prevailng wage plus extra 5-10K).

My employer responded to RFE but he did not state affarmatively that he will pay the Proferred wage after GC approval but he has promised that he would pay either equal to prevailng wages or exceed it. So i donot understand if cases will get rejected just due to salaries.

Please help me if somebody knows about it or read about it anywhere.
