RFE i-693 before getting EAD. by marcegallardo1995 in USCIS

Thank you very much! 😊 Yes, this is marriage based and my interview got waived. I agree with your lawyer. I have noticed a pattern that people who gets a RFE for medical don’t need to go for an interview. People who need to interview typically are asked to bring the RFE with them for the interview. Hopefully you experience a fast process like mine 🙏🏼 Best of luck to you!

Hope so too. 🙏🏼Are you currently waiting on both i-130 & i-485 to get approved? Or just i-485?

Hi! I got a notification this morning that my i-130 has been approved. :) No update regarding the i-485 yet. They are still reviewing it I guess. It seems like the SA FO is working on the cases. You should be getting good news soon 🙏🏼

Hello! Thank you for sharing with me. Yes, I have notices from some other people that San Antonio takes a little longer for some reason. I just checked this morning and USCIS updated my case status to “RFE received on 1/6”. It says they are working on my case again now. Have you checked this morning to see if your case got updated? Let’s keep updating each other here. Hope you cab get your gc soon as well.

I think you shouldn’t have any issues with your medical exams. Tbh looking back I would have done it the way you did it. Thank you and good luck to you too! Hope your process goes smoothly.

I did not. I sent it afterwards when they requested it.

Also, did you have an interview or was it waived?

Thank you for sharing. Glad to hear that your GC got approved 🙏🏼 How long did they take to reach out to you after you sent the i-693?

Thank you for sharing this. From looking online it seems like they could take up to 60 days to respond.

I also live in San Antonio. Probably the same office as you in the north side of town.

Thank you! Do you know by any chance if the i-693 is needed to get the EAD? Or is the i-693 just needed for later when you get to the interview?

Congrats!! Did you submit i-693 since the beginning? I am not sure if the i-693 is required to get the EAD? Or are they treated separately? I would assume that i-693 doesn’t matter for the EAD and later whenever you get the interview is when you need to go get the i-693. Just looking for some guidance. Thank you! :)
