Is it important to avoid an RFE, and how can I avoid it?

Print

Usually, carefully preparing your case with the assistance of a lawyer can go a long way. The key is to present all information that an adjudicator may need in an easy-to-digest format.

This is important because, first, an RFE means a delay in your case, and second, it draws attention to your case. Even when your case is actually perfectly within the law, drawing attention to your case may mean added scrutiny, additional questions, and additional nit-picking about minute details that should not affect your case but sometimes do.

However, there are some RFEs that you cannot avoid. In particular, USCIS often sends an RFE shortly before approving an I-485 to verify that you are still employed with the same employer.
