Request for Evidence (RFE) is a request for additional evidence issued by the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) during the evaluation process of an immigrant visa application. When an individual applies for an immigrant visa, whether through an employment-based petition, family sponsorship, or other reasons, USCIS reviews the submitted documentation to ensure that all legal and regulatory requirements are met.
If the immigration officer reviews the application and determines that there is insufficient information or missing documents to make a decision, they may issue an RFE. This document outlines the additional information or evidence that the applicant must provide for the application to be processed. The issuance of an RFE does not necessarily mean that the application will be denied; rather, it indicates that there is pending information that needs to be clarified or supplemented.
Responding appropriately to an RFE is crucial to the success of the visa application. This involves clearly understanding the USCIS requirements, gathering the correct documentation, and presenting it in an organized and compelling manner.
