Guys,
to my suprise, I have seen my wife's status as mentione above this morning. does anyone are in the same situation or have any RFE on I-485. if yes, or if you know, can you let me know please, what they are asking or usually what they will ask in this kind of situation. do i need to worry about anything.
I am little bit tense and your response is greatly appreciated.

Note: my I-485 status show: Card production ordered.
 
First off, congrats on your GC. Enjoy.
Second, if you are the primary, no need to worry. Your wife will get approved. It'll only take a little longer.
Third, an RFE is just that. They're processing stuff and realize that they need more docs. That's about it.
Don't get tense. They're not out to get you. Chill and relax. Wait for the RFE notice and see what they're asking for and send it to them. Follow up later and that's about it.
You only need to get tense if you're involved in fraud. If everything is above board, it's just paperwork.
 
Congrats.

The most popular - medical
The second - status proof for the certain period
The third - Marriage proof
any other reasons (photo picture, they lost something, signature is done by the wrong ink.)

In case of my wife they asked her to do X-Ray

The worst thing in those RFEs for spouses is wasting time and money (if it is medical).

does anybody had any (new) RFE for their spouse. if any?...can you please let me know that they are asking lately. I havent received my wife's RFE yet.
 
Hi Ram,

my husband (main applicant) and I (dependent) had an RFE in May. It was only for me, and it asked for further proof of 2 things:
1- my birth and parentage (they wanted documents other than my birth certificate)
2- Marriage (they wanted us to send rental agreements, wedding photos, joint bank account info etc to show that ours was not a marriage of convenience)

Many of the ppl I know have received RFEs. It's quite normal and it only indicates that they need some clarification on a specific portion of your case.
 
Thanks for your response. hope you will get your GC soon. I havent received RFE yet. but will update the forum after I get it.

What they want is evidence that you and your wife have a real married life together. People normally submit pictures showing vacations or family gatherings. The more different kind of pictures you submit, the better. You should also submit any document having both you and your wife's name, such as car and housing leases, mortgages, statements from joint bank accounts that actually have money in them, credit card statements, utility bills, life insurance policies, medical insurance plans, retirement plans, etc.

Did you submit the Marriage certificate along spouse application?

Marriage certificate, Marriage photos, Bank statements, Leasing agreements, Health Insurance papers.
Submit documents to show that you are together since the marriage.

In most cases, the primary and derivatives approved close to each others (days to few weeks). Few others there is gap betrween their approval which could be extended to years.

I got an email from CRIS saying:

"Current Status: This case is now pending at the office to which it was transferred."

Anyone had a similar experience with the process for their dependents? Can you suggest what I can expect in the coming days.

Thanks
