Congrats! I don’t see many people talk about this, but my receipt notices were also automatically linked to my online portal (I already had an account from previous OPT/STEM OPT filings) I have 3 questions @Jenish Patel : 1) Did you still receive paper receipt notices in the mail? 2) What confirmed that your interview was waived? Was it something related to the Biometrics appointment? 3) Would you feel comfortable sharing what further financial documents USCIS needed for the RFE? (For context, we filed in February 2025 and didn’t need to include our 2024 joint tax return, so I’m wondering if we’re doomed to get a RFE for the 2024 joint tax return down the road) Thank you!
