Case Processing
RFE AFTER 4yrs! 😢
Hi everyone,
So,I got RFE from USCIS after waiting for 4yrs. I applied April 2022 and have obtained about 6 Prima Facies. Also, I’m on my second combo card which expires 2029 and an asylum case pending.
They are asking me to give them more evidence for:
1. Good faith marriage
2. Shared residence
The truth is, I literally have nothing more to give them other than statements and maybe a few pictures. My lawyer is suggesting that I reach out to neighbors in the state that l lived with my ex to ask if they could write statements for me. I know no one in that city and I moved from that place from 2022.
The ex husband did not want my name on anything and made it so hard for me to get anything done re paper work.
I honestly feel stressed,scared overwhelmed and lost. I’m a sense I feel so defeated and very close to wanting to pack my bags and leave this country. I’m tired. 😪 😢 🤦🏿♂️
So far, I have secured about 5 notarized statements from friends and people who know of my marriage. My deadline to respond yo them is May 18,2026.
I don’t know what else to do.
What do suggest that I do?
Thank you.

Should I expect interview? Any impresions about this office?
Can I respond to RFE directly if the RFE is addressed to my attorney
Me and wife got RFEs for missing polio vaccines.
Our attorney is asking for more money to respond to these.
We already paid a substantial amount during filing.
After doing some research it feels like I can respond to it myself.
It only needs updated I-693s from the medical examiner and submitted those with a copy of the RFE letter and a cover letter.
One concern I have is the RFE letters are addressed to our attorney and not directly to us.
Can I still respond to the RFE directly without the attorney?
Any suggestions here will be very helpful.
If anyone else has responded themselves to such RFEs, kindly share your experience.
My wife is not working yet and paying more to the attorney puts us under more financial stress
Totally stoked!! Right at the interview for F2A for i-485 learned they had it messed up my wife as benificiary instead of me. Officer helped us to all his reach and still conducted the interview.
