Possible Reasons for I485 RFE
Just checked my status online and I saw “Request for Initial Evidence sent” for my I485. I filed with my spouse and daughter, but theirs didn’t (haven’t changed) even though their receipt number comes before mine. Pls, what are the most common reasons for RFE for I485?

our RFE was also for birth certificates (already submitted too). it could also be for medicals.

@m m Thank you for your response! I got the EB1, so, I don’t need Supplement J. How did you go about that?

@Mimi Rmd Thank you for your response! That would be surprising coz I attached my birth certificate. I am not entirely sure about the medical since I am not a surgeon

@KY KY similar situation. my wife got an RFE on May 9th (still have not received the mail) but my child and I did not. We are assuming it’s birth certificate since we sent medicals along with our application and I also sent my Supplement J (EB1-C)

@D P Yes, I got the EB1A

@B J May 9 is a long time ago!

@KY KY I believe it can take up to 2 weeks

@KY KY I also submitted my birth certificates at first but they asked for it a second time anyway... They might try to gain some time (I'm also EB1)

@Mimi Rmd Thank you. Was just surprised. I wasn’t expecting a response any time soon. Seems they are really moving fast now.

Ours were birth certificates. I ‘ve requested the translator’s business certificate and shared that as well this time. Better to be safe than sorry. 😅Hoping to receive our approvals soon 🙏🏼

My dependents (spouse and 2 kids) all had requests for birth certificates even though we had included them for all 4 of us.

@Kristine B Thank you for your response. That’s strange. I will wait for it.

@KY KY got the RFE. it was for birth certificate (even though it had been submitted). responded to it today.
KY KYMay 25, 2024
@B J Very surprising. A lot of people have reported RFE on birth certificate. I don’t know why USCIS does this
KY KYMay 25, 2024
@B J So, did you state you had submitted before and submitted again or you just submitted it?
B
B JMay 25, 2024
@KY KY very respectfully mentioned that it had been submitted previously but nonetheless, for ease of review, am attaching it again.
KY KYMay 25, 2024
@B J “very respectfully”…loool. I understand. Good luck with the application! Btw, have you done your biometrics?
B
B JMay 25, 2024
@KY KY yup, biometrics done.
