read your courtesy letter again, RFE is different from courtesy letter

@tammy keller @texas The email says this: Courtesy Letter Request An initial review of the evidence submitted for your Form I-485, Application to Register Permanent Residence or Adjust Status, determined that the evidence submitted was deficient for the following reasons. A completed and signed I-693 was not submitted If you already submitted a I-693, Report of Medical Examination and Vaccination Record or if you are a K-1 VISA holder, please disregard this notice, no further action is needed. What You Need to Do Submit a completed Form I-693, Report of Medical Examination and Vaccination Record. A USCIS civil surgeon must complete and sign the form, and you must also sign the form. If the civil surgeon refers you to a specialist, the specialist must include his or her medical exam results and complete the proper sections of the Form I-693 before the civil surgeon may sign the form. Once everyone has signed, the civil surgeon will place the completed Form I-693 in a sealed envelope and give it to you. You must submit the sealed envelope containing the original Form I-693 that the civil surgeon signed and the medical exam results; we will NOT accept photocopied Form I-693 and medical exam results. Civil surgeons must use the current Edition of Form I-693. You can find the current edition of Form I-693 on USCIS’ website at www.uscis.gov. In addition, the civil surgeon must ensure that all parts of Form I-693 were properly completed. Please Note: All Forms I-693 signed by civil surgeons on or after October 5, 2022, must use the 07/19/2022 edition of Form I-693. USCIS will not accept the 09/13/2021 version (or any previous editions) if the civil surgeon signed the Form I-693 after October 4, 2022. Therefore, the civil surgeon administering your immigration medical examination must complete and sign the 07/19/2022 edition of the Form I-693. Reminder: Effective October 1, 2021, applicants subject to the immigration medical examination must complete the COVID-19 vaccine series before the civil surgeon can complete an immigration medical examination and sign Form I-693. This applies to Form I-693 signed by civil surgeon on or after October 1, 2021. Please return the completed Form I-693 in an envelope sealed by the civil surgeon. Including a copy of this notice with your Form I-693 will facilitate matching the medical report with your file. Important Warning: Only a designated civil surgeon authorized by USCIS to conduct medical examinations is qualified to complete the Form I-693. The civil surgeon must sign and date the Form I-693. Signatures by a nurse, physician’s assistant, or a doctor not designated as a civil surgeon are not acceptable. You must also sign and date the Form I-693 when instructed to do so by the civil surgeon. When appropriately completed and signed, the original Form I-693 must be sealed in a separate envelope by the civil surgeon. The sealed envelope must be returned, unopened, to this office with any other requested evidence. A list of designated civil surgeons can be obtained by calling the USCIS Contact Center at 1-800-375-5283, or via the USCIS website at www.uscis.gov and using the MyUSCIS Find a Doctor tool at my.uscis.gov/findadoctor. You will need to provide your zip code or address. If you are hearing impaired, please call the USCIS Contact Center TDD at 1-800-767-1833. Although processing times cannot be guaranteed, to complete your case as soon as possible, we strongly encourage you to submit your complete Form I-693 via express mail. Mail your response to this address: U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services Detroit Field Office 11411 East Jefferson Ave Detroit, MI 48214

and at the bottom of the enail, it says: Although processing times cannot be guaranteed, to complete your case as soon as possible, we strongly encourage you to submit your complete Form I-693 via express mail. Mail your response to this address: U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services Detroit Field Office 11411 East Jefferson Ave Detroit, MI 48214

it's weird and complicated that they sent differently content each persons.

@Sinsupa 1 It appears that different field offices word it differently. When USCIS updated their processing times page, the Detroit center went down by about 2 months. So I have a feeling that approval is around the corner

I got courtesy notice too but they said it's not formal RFE request. just only courtesy notice.

i got an email too. mine said to send it to las vegas nv even though I’m in McAllen tx. per usps they received it on march 20th but so far I haven’t gotten any updates

@xitlaly hdz please keep me updated! let me know when you get approval. Or make a post about it.

@tammy keller Did they email that to you, or is it under your documents section? I got a notice like that too shortly after filing my case. It is called a i693 deficiency notice

@tammy keller yes everyone gets those shortly after filing if they havent included i693. I got that too. Now months later I got a direct email from my field office asking to submit it

how do you know that your interview has been waived? I got this courtesy notice on March 31 and my attorney will send it next week to the Chicago field office. fingers crossed!!!

@tammy keller just got it in my email. Nothing online. The deficiency notice came online & in the mail about 2 weeks after my biometrics. The Courtesy Notice from my field office came 2 weeks ago in my email only

@N SJ i dont know if it is being waived. Im hoping so. Fingers crossed 🤞

@Nutella Nuts hi!! do you have any updates after you submitted? I submitted back in Jan 3rd they received but then I got the courtesy email a couple weeks ago. I am going to hopefully resend tomorrow.

My PD is Dec 2022. Got the courtesy email to send in medicals. USPS delivered it 13th April (3 days ago). Nothing yet

@Nutella Nuts thank you and good luck!!!

I’ve seen people get approved within 30 days of sending their medical on Reddit so I hope it’s the same for all of us!! sent mine in last week

Any update

@nutella Nuts any update? I got the EXACT same letter a few weeks back and I'm about to send mine in soon

@Guadalupe Arroyo @ya ya About a week after sending in medicals, we got an RFE for i130. Havent responded to it yet. Still waiting on friends to write sworn affidavits

@Nutella Nuts : I got the same email today but they sent it to my husband email (not my email). I would like to know what is your status now? did you do the same guidence in the letter? Please share your experience. thank you

@God Bless Cases I got an RFE on i130 for bonafide marriage evidence a week after sending in medicals. Still working on our response. They gave us 90 days to respond so we have been slacking and enjoying the warm weather. I have just over a month left to respond so we will start working on it next week
