USCIS:Request for additional information

i am already in the usa and just going to start the adjustment of status process. i do not have my birth certificate here, but i have a certificate from my school which clearly writes - her date of birth according to school record is..... is that enough or i will have to get my family do the english translation of my birth certificate and send it to me? when actually is birth certificate needed? during the visa issuance or at the time of filing a petition? please give some valuable suggestions.

you must have the actual translated birth certificate. you need it when filing a petition.

:balloons: no problem.

also, forgot to add... if the certificate is translated, it must be certified by a notary.

good luck.:)

Im in the same predicament. My I 140 was filed last July and VSC requires additional information. My recruiter said that Vermont sc only requested for an RFE. Is that enough? How long do I have to wait for an approval? What is the next step? help needed...

Once they submit the documents being asked by Vermont, you can expect your approval with in a month or two. Good Luck!

Thanks rep for the reply! Congratulations! i saw in the other thread that you got your visa... I cant wait to get mine. Honestly how long do you think to process everything before I get my visa? Im currently based in singapore and I want to spend 6 months in Manila before going to the US. Vermont is too slow

INS request for additional was for us to sign eta form 9089. Does this mean our I140 will start over since mine has not been approved yet. RD was May 2005?

Im worried about my status at BCIS. I don't know if BCIS has already received my rfe, but my employer told me they already submitted the rfe. it's already almost a month since my inquiry about the rfe submission from my agency, but still my status at BCIS says the same.

I don't know what is happening.. should I be worried? Others with the same agency had their rfe received by BCIS and their status changed. Is it possible that BCIS had neglected my rfe or just did not receive it? Or I don't know. I'm confused...
