Finally I got approved!
Today I got the update I’ve been waiting for 04 years. After one interview and two RFE’s I made it. I have only one word to describe how I feel right now, RELIEF. I wish God bless you all on this journey and keep faith, at the right time it’s gonna happen. Thank you.

Charlie SCAug 2, 2024
Rfe's for?
B OAug 2, 2024
@EB3 UNSKILLED My PD is 08/05/2020. I got a RFE for medical, so the last status was “We received your response…”. My status was CRP before receiving the RFE. Your turn is coming. Be ready. Thank you
B OAug 2, 2024
@G C Thank you
B OAug 2, 2024
@Charlie SC The first one was to prove that I maintained status since I got here and also to prove my marriage because my wife is the main applicant. The second one was for medical. GC approved two days after USCIS received the package.
EB3 UNSKILLEDAug 2, 2024
@B O I did my medicals in October 2022 and I sent them with the whole package, should I receive a RFE for medicals? or the medical is good for more years? I am wondering.
B OAug 2, 2024
@EB3 UNSKILLED Your medical is going to expire in October 2024, so you should be fine with it. No worries. The USCIS updated the rules and said the following about the expiration “Effective April 4, 2024, any Form I-693 that was properly completed and signed by a civil surgeon on or after Nov. 1, 2023, does not expire…”

@Alex brown its rfe was sent
B OAug 3, 2024
@Alex brown Is your medical expired as well? Did you receive the RFE because of that?

PRC .Aug 3, 2024
@B O can you please share with us what type of question did they ask you in interview?
B OAug 3, 2024
@PRC . It was a lot of questions about our story since we got here, our marriage, my wife’s job (she is the main applicant), and also our status. They told us there was a gap in the system and they had to make sure we maintained status before moving forward in the process. This gap actually didn’t exist, I don’t know how they reached that conclusion. The interview was smooth even though they focused on that issue. 03 months later we got the first RFE asking us to prove our marriage and our status. It seems like the interview wasn’t enough to make clear we were married and maintained status.

@B O what do they request you? just medical form or something elese.
B OAug 5, 2024
@tom tran The first one was to prove that I maintained status since I got here and also to prove my marriage because my wife is the main applicant. The second one was for medical. GC approved two days after USCIS received the package.
