@sunny gov Maybe they wanted more than you sent the first time or they lost the package 📦 it could be anything but it's not bad at least they are working on your case

them asking for initial evidence not additional evidence so you should be good initial evidence can mean brith certificate, marriage certificate nothing to worry about

It cold mean that USCIS believes something required from the original filing is still missing, even though you previously responded to an RFE. A “request for initial evidence” usually refers to a basic required document, not just extra supporting proof. Sometimes officers use that wording even if you already sent documents, especially if something expired, was incomplete, unsigned, missing a translation, or possibly not properly scanned into the file. It can also be a completely different required item they are only now reviewing. Wait for the actual notice and read it carefully. Once you see exactly what they’re asking for, respond by sending everything listed, even if you already submitted it before. If you share what form this is for and what they’re requesting, I can give you more specific guidance."" - Attorney Ana Gabriela Urizar (All information shared here is for general educational purposes only.
