on the rfe notice, it tells you the last day the response needs to reach uscis office. you can get a live person if you ask for representative or tell the robot that you are calling about missing notice or didn’t receive notice. my notice had about 90days from the date they sent it out if i remember correctly but i do not know if everyone is the same

@April 2022 Do you think the RFE is for medical? I just received an RFE for my medical exam, and it says I have 87 days to respond.

The standard response time for a Request for Evidence (RFE) is clearly stated on the RFE notice itself, and it is typically between 30 and 84 days, depending on the type of evidence requested. USCIS does not accept late responses, and failure to respond by the deadline results in denial of the I-485. Being at 16 days is not a concern if your RFE allows a standard 60–84 day response window, which is common for I-485 cases. The key risk is missing the deadline, not attorney responsiveness. If your attorney is unresponsive, you can still request a copy of the RFE directly through a USCIS online account message, e-Request, or by calling USCIS and using the “InfoPass/agent callback” system to reach a live representative. Importantly, USCIS treats the applicant as ultimately responsible for timely response, even if represented by counsel, so ensuring you obtain and respond before the deadline is critical to avoid denial.

Yes, that sounds like a medical RFE. Respond with a properly completed and sealed Form I-693 from a USCIS civil surgeon, unless the notice gives different instructions. Do not miss the 87-day deadline. After medical RFE response, some cases approve quickly, but others still take time.
