I know it is overwhelming, when we get email from USCIS about RFE. But be patient it is generally for employment verification, birth certificate, medicals etc. If there is one for spouse it could be for marriage verification.
You need to wait at least 7 days before you should call to check with them. But 7 days is fair time, and 80% (no data backing) of letters are received by then.

My Delhi Consulate Experience for my H-1B extention:
I am from Hyderabad but due to unavailability of appointments in Chennai consulate I applied through Delhi consulate. As a US Resident, I have an option of selecting any Consulate in India.
First they will check your DS 156 & DS 157 form when you are in queue to get in and also your application gets verified in a counter outside the main embassy and then you are let in, you can deposit your Cell Phones so don't leave your cell phones at home as we did, it was tough without a cell phone for half an hour after interview .
Once you get in into the embassy they do finger printing and then you are in queue to meet US Consular Agents.
While I was in queue, I saw lot of people getting rejected (mostly F1). They were asking unexpected questions to H1-B extension folks too. Questions like
1) Why did you change to this new employer?
2) How many employees does it currently have?
3) What does the company do?
4) How did you know about this company?
5) What was your masters in?
6) In my case they asked about names of the clients I was involved with through my IT services employer?
7) What are your job responsibilities?
They are trying to look at your body language and communication skills.
When I went to the counter he asked me about my previous company and current company, as mentioned above they asked me about how many clients I was involved with through my current employer. Then he said, he couldn't find my petitioner details online so he would check it and issue my visa if no further documents are required(I don't know what he meant by no further documents). I do not have my passport yet(12 Jan 09), I have submitted my docs on 9th Jan 09. I expect my visa to arrive sometime next week (hopefully). Regarding documents he did not look at any of my documents except for my passport and I-797.
I hope this helps. I am currently in India.

Did the office say that you are granted visa and the passport will be mailed. I know in Mumbai consulate, you can collect the stamped-passport the same evening.
NewDelhi consulate will have an email address, email them and check. otherwise if you are there in the city visit the consulate and enquire.
Just my thoughts.All the best.
THe process has changed the passport are now delivered the next day between 4:30 PM to 5:00 PM. Mumbai consulate no longer delivers the passport the same day of interview.

Do I still have to be employed by my original sponsor when i get the appt after 6 months?
If I return to the US in a few months do I still have to option of filing 485 even though I've already applied for CP in India?
Yes to Q1. Yes to Q2, but you will have to discontinue the CP option. I would suggest going the CP way in your case. AOS is unpredictable with CP you will have a definite date. Best option get H1 in India return and apply for AOS, if not apply for CP and return with H1 go back in 6 months get GC if all else fails wait in India for 6 months and come back with GC.

I bet you are kidding. If you aren't, then what I meant was various rules and regulations that come with each application, application process available from USCIS. One good way is to go to state.gov or to popular immi law education sites of lawyers (google comes handy here).

hi, based on my wife's experience(for H4 based on my H1B) they didn't give the I-94 valid till the full 3 years. They rather gave only for 2 years. Hence saying so.
Yah, may be yours is a peculiar case. But it won't happen like that always. If it happens to be like that, then you can ask the officer right away to give it to my the end date there on latest approval. Sometimes they are lazy, try to give to the date there on visa stamp only. But if you insist and show the latest approval, then will do it or if he/she can check other officers there and give it to the end date there on latest approval. It all depend on us and we need to check it properly and make sure that they are putting correct info.
For one of my friend, they gave few more days after the date on approval. So, they can put any date on I-94, if they want to. There is nothing wrong. It is upto the Port of entry officer.

My husband received a �Transfer Notice� for his I-485 from TSC. This is what the notice says.
"Preliminary Processing of the application has been completed, and it has been transferred to USCIS-NBC, Lee's summit , MO 64064. The office will notify you when they schedule an interview on the application."
Here is brief history.
My PD is July-04 in EB2. I am the primary applicant and I am on H1. My husband was on H4 and now he is on EAD. My I-485 was filed in NSC, and then moved to TSC. Here are my ?s.
1. What is meant by �Preliminary Processing of the application has been completed�? What is completed actually? This is just an indication that most processing is now complete.......it means they did not find any 'technical issue' with your application.
2. I did not receive any such notice so far, is it quite normal? You will also get a notice soon. Usually both (husband-wife) gets the interview letter with a time difference of 15min-30min same date though......
3. Came to US on L1 blanket visa and didn�t submit the approval notices for my husband, since there is no separate approval notices for the dependents coming on L blanket visa. May be is it, because of this? I dont think that is an issue here.........
4. My husband had a DUI in March 2003, and that case was closed. It was a misdemeanor, and not a felony. Is this notice because of my husband�s DUI record? This could be the reason although 'routine interviews' are now happening but you need to take all the court documents and be prepared to explain DUI.5. Also, I raised �Expedite Service Request� twice, because of my husband�s serious heart condition, and faxed the medical letter to uscis as a proof , however this request got rejected both the times. May be, is it to verify the medical condition?. Could be but DUI seems to be more of a reason here.6. Will something related to my AOs be decided based on how we answer. It all depends on how serious USCIS takes the DUI and what kind of IO you encounter. I really can not comment on this....
7. Can I accompany my husband for the interview? You should get an interview letter and hence you will be able to go with your husband. Also you can always take the attorney with you. This helps and you can have your lawyer talk only if it is required (when you need support to answer something or if the IO is some silly rude person - you never know)
I am really concerned about the interview. Please let me know what you know about this.
I have described what to prepare and details can be found at
http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/showthread.php?t=24150&highlight=piyu7444
Thanks.
I hope this helps you. Just prepare everything you can for DUI and also about your job responsibility etc and be calm. Be confident at the interview and all will be good :)

I am in a tricky situation. Filed concurrent I-140 and I-485 (Schedule A Group 2..exceptional ability in the arts and science) ... 8/2006.
In the meanwhile a labor cert as well- PD 8/ 2004 was approved in 2006 and I recieved an updated I-140 using the old priority date, ie. 2004. Now after 2 years the TSC is adamant that my PD is 2006 not 2004 and have given me yet another "corrected" I-140 with 2006 PD.
One lawyer said I could cite "affirmative misconduct" and request the supervisor of the I-140 section to consider and accept the late filing on the basis of affirmative misconduct. If not for the earlier I-140 with 2004 PD we would have filed another I-140. So their affirmative mistake cost us 2 years in a category so backlogged already. (I am EB 2 India).
My lawyer says we will not win and does not want to do it. Any advice?

Receipt numbers are worthless in my case. My application is pending in the local service center and i see the status message from Aug 2004. After that I was scheduled an interview, I did FP, I attended an interview, got stuck in the stupid name check, took 2-3 INFOPASS appointments.
So what's up with the case status online ?

Hi Everyone viewing this thread,
Please help the Add ONE Member campaign. Introduce just ONE member to IV, by Jan 31st.
That will go a long way in helping all of us (be it CIR or SKIL or whatever vehicle our provisions ride on). Otherwise we will only be seeing movement like this (a week or so every month).
Please participate and help others participate in the 'Add ONE Member' campaign.
Thank you.

That's correct you cannot open a service request without a receipt, this was suggested to me because I was tracking my spouse's application and they accepted my receipt number. In a way it was a service request on my name.
You can do the following, use your I-140 receipt number. They only reason they need a receipt number is to track the person with the service request.
You can request that your I-485 was filed with the following I-140 XXX receipt number. This will start some kind of tracking on your I-485 application
for which no receipt has been issued in more that 45 days.
Don't read too much in IO's response, you will get different responses from each one of them.
I am sure you will get your receipts before July 30.
Thanks Canadian_Dream and mrcmic!
I just called NSC to put an service request. I was told no receipt #, no service request can be put in.
Further I was told, there was hold all application to be processed till 2days ago, hence they have started receipting again 2 days back. Hard to believe it. I said I am 11thJune filer, but the IO kept saying there was a hold till 2 days ago. According to IO, all applications will be receipted by30thJuly. But she repeatedly suggested to check the bank for encashed checks. She said 'no encashed checks, no receipt #'...
SO if no receipt #, then how do we file at service request ?? Is there a link to file an online service request?? (I couldn't find one)
Anybody else in the same boat?? Please let us know so that we can track each other's progress.
Thanks once again!

If Skill Bill passes eventually, won't EB2 be beneficial over EB3.
I used my EB2 (jan 2006) over EB3 (March 2005)
SKIL doesnt look at EB2 or EB3, only whether you have a US graduate degree in STEM.

Hi,
USCIS online status is not reliable. So, getting an Infopass appointment would help you get the actual case status. Best of luck!

I came across comments that H1 to EAD is one way. So its better to be in H1 rather than being in EAD. The expenses may not be great even you have to shell out some dollars. If you wish to change jobs and get around 30% increase use EAD.
I attended an interview that i have EAD then when it came to negotiations on salary i accepted the little lower offer and asked them to do H1B transfer. It works....

thats weird!
watchout buddy, some chick working at USCIS might be attracted to you and wants to get your new pics for every application you make.... :D
When my AP came up for renewal my attorney asked to get new set of photos.
In addition my cousin's EAD application got RFE'ed to get new set of photos even though the photos were recent. The reason given was that they had used same photos to renew their visa few months back (less than 6 months).
Is USCIS coming up some new rule about photos being 'unused' ?? The guidelines say that photos should be recent (taken in last 6 months). However nowhere I do I see that the photos should be 'unused' previously ?
Anyone else had same experience ?
