GC approval's steps after RFE response - EB2-1 Category
Hi guys,,
i have just submitted my medicals as a response to an RFE. We received an email from USCIS about submitting them as soon as possible saying that jf approvable, the GC would be granted before October 1st. Did you have any similar experience and how long after you submitted your responsee, did you get the approval? Also, are interviews waived for the EB 2-1 category (employement based high skilled)? If yes, did you receive your GC in the mail after your approval?
Thank you in advance for any feedback :-)

i got call from uscis, officer advised me send medicals asap, told me start your medical process dont wait for rfe, we will send meanwhile but start the process. initially i thought its a prank, but in next 2 days i got the rfe. i sent them my medicals almost 1 month back, but no further update yet, even officer told me that they are waving the interview as well, mine is eb1.

when did u submit?
hpo poniSep 13, 2021
are they joking or theywill actually adjudicate or allocate visa numbers by sept 30?
Aibek ChSep 14, 2021
mine has been 40 days since the receipt of response to rfe, no updates. eb3
hpo poniSep 14, 2021
what do you think? will they adjudicate this month or hang for another few years🙈

i got an email to submit medical rfe as well without paper copy. this was on Sept 9, have to submit by Sept 24. The blood tests take 7-10days to result so I dont know if I will be making the deadline. so frustrating
hpo poniSep 14, 2021
where did they write to submit by sept 24?
hpo poniSep 14, 2021
in the email or on the rfe copy?
M NSep 14, 2021
Hpo Poni do you have a similar case?
hpo poniSep 14, 2021
similar but didnt mention to submit by sept 24th just asap overnight

let’s wait until October the 1st , hopefully all the people that presented the medicals RFE, will receive the green card interview waived . 🙌
choui dySep 14, 2021
@hpo it was in the email
choui dySep 14, 2021
why would we have to wait a few years if it doesnt happen by oct 1st? is this a speculation or is there evidence to beleive it is certain?
hpo poniSep 14, 2021
i hope all gets through this hard time and wait game by sept 30👍🙏
Aba SSep 14, 2021
submitted medical rfe in August 31. Till date case status did Not change to rfe response received too. impatiently waiting too
hpo poniSep 14, 2021
@ash does it really matter if status is uodated to rfe received than nothing? i have seen people getting direct approval. without any status update
A KSep 14, 2021
i recieved rfe on 12 august. i send mine on 18 august and 20 august i got an update rfe recieved. nothing happened after that. i was told to send them back as soon as possible but not later than 87 days.
i think they gonna approve everyone last day of September 😂
Aba SSep 14, 2021
@hpo poni Just to ensure that they have it. Agree that approval and getting the card is our end goal.
Aba SSep 14, 2021
@ak Hoping for the same by Sep 30

i had chat with live agent, got update there is some issue with site, thats why its not showing latest updated status, and agent confirmed that they have received my medicals. Suggested only option is to wait.
vis soSep 14, 2021
if you want to chat with live agent then at EMMA, type, 'chat with live agent', then next click on check case status.
Aba SSep 14, 2021
@vis so I spoke to USCIS agent from their 1-800 number. They said my docs might not be scanned yet, so they asked me to wait for 60days.
vis soSep 14, 2021
ya, i think having patience is only key and wait, it looks they are trying their best.
hpo poniSep 14, 2021
well my question is why would it take so long for them to just check/verify rfe medicals and provide a decision.
vis soSep 14, 2021
i also feel like you, but looks they get in thousands, less staff due to coivd, need to scan, validate, follow all steps in their process. lets be positive and hope for the best and early outcome. 🙏
hpo poniSep 14, 2021

I got the Medical RFE as well two week ago, coincidently I started the process of getting the medical done right before getting the RFE. glad I did, because in the letter they said send it before 09/30 to be consider within this fiscal year. they asked for proof of marriage evidence from my wife too so I assume they are waving the interview, unless they want to verify something
Aba SSep 27, 2021
i also had medical rfe and also proof of marriage evidence for my spouse. RFE submitted on Aug 31. no update after until Sept 24th it shows new card being produced for me. my spouse's case is still stuck with RFE sent
