I received an RFE on my i-485 application (filed in Jan 2007, went to Texas Service Center) in June, which was responded in the timely manner and my online case status was updated.
Priority date: July 2002
On Oct 3rd I received another email stating that another RFE has been issued for my case. That RFE has not been received by my lawyer yet. I have called USCIS couple of times (once today). First they said it is a glitch in the system and no RFE has been issued. Today I was told that an RFE was indeed issued on October 3rd and I have requested a duplicate copy (supposed to reach me around 12th Dec). We are visiting India in Dec (a pending trip for past 4 years).
Based on the 87 days rule of responding to the RFE, I am really timestrapped.
Questions:
* Is it typical to get multiple RFEs for an I-485 application?
* Can one proactively send the information for the RFE without receiving the RFE? If so, what is typically requested in an RFE (last time it was pay stubs and birth certificate).
* What happens if response does not reach USCIS in 87 days since the RFE was first sent?
Please respond if you have comments on one or more of these questions.
