Dear all,

I have a RFE question. here is my details:

-EB3/other/VSC
-PD: 02/00
-RD: 02/22/01
-ND: 03/02/01
-FP: 08/01
-AVM changed from "case not found" to the standard: 11/24/01
-AVM changed from standard to "on 12/27/01, a notice has been sent to you requesting more evidence": 12/27/01
-Received the RFE from law firm: 01/10/02 (major applicant\'s medical record/shot record due to doctor\'s mess up)
-Replied RFE the same day to the law firm: 01/10/02
-AVM changed from RFE to "on Jan. 16th, we received the evidence... it usually takes around 365 to 540 for this kind of case. HOWEVER, SINCE THE PRELIMINARY PROCESS HAS BEEN COMPLETED, IT USUALLY TAKES 540 DAYS TO PROCESS THIS KIND OF CASE. WE WILL MAIL YOU A WRITTEN NOTICE ABOUT THE DECISION ON YOUR CASE": 01/16/02

My question is: since the preliminary process has been completed, why it still takes 540 (not even 365) days to approve ? Is this a normal RFE message ? Usually how long will it take after VSC got my RFE ? Anyone with similar experiences, please post your ideas/responses. Thanks in advance.

No Title

The similar AVM happened in my I-140. I think you can just ignore it. Normally, RFE gets approved pretty quickly provided you answered their request to their satisfaction.
 
Dont worry your case will be approved soon....

This strange message will be there in most cases when the RFE is received by the INS. But it will only take the usual processing time to approve after RFE has been received. These days it appears to be few weeks.

you can expect your approval soon...
 
Same Message

I heard the same message and I found that from other friends of mine that its normal message. Lets keep our finger crossed. My RFE response was received on Jan 16th. Earlier I have similar message with respect to my EAD card and 140 approval.
