Hello there! Does anyone can answer my question please?
I am an applicant of I-485 for green card.
11/22/2015----Biometrics
4/4/2016-------RFE (USCIS just need all pages of my current passport)
4/11/2016------USCIS received what they need
My question is, how long it takes to wait for the decision?
By the way my previous visa was T-non immigrant.

Hello Yaj,

Currently, USCIS estimated I-485 processing at 4-8 months, if the USCIS approves you, then they will issue the card in about two months.

Joelelwyn, thank you! But you mean to say I have to wait for another 4-8 months for the decision after submitting the documents they need for RFE?

Hello Joelelwyn,

It's been 6 months since my application for my I-485.
I received my RFE April 4, 2016...April 5, 2016 I mailed thru FedEx the documents they need.
On the 11th of April when I checked my status they received the documents.
So, my question is do I have to wait another 6-8 months for the decision?
The only document they asked is all pages of my current passport which I sent right away.

So, my questions are do I have to wait another 6-8 months for the decision?
Does my adjudicator go over again all my documents?
What will be the possibilities?

Simple answer is no you don't go back to waiting for 6-8 months just because you had to respond to an RFE, however no one can be certain when they will progress your file again until after they review your response. They won't need to review everything from scratch so I think once it's picked up again it will move swiftly as that was a relatively straight forward RFE request (assuming you provided all pages).
Now that leads to an interesting point as I know there have been discussions on what pages are required of the immigrants passport as many have only provided the bio page and visa page plus date of entry stamp if on a different page. Others said might as well include the lot as no harm in doing so. It might depend on which countries you have visited in the past that they want a closer look at on date stamps as can't see why else they would want all pages.

Won't be too long before you hear I would think.

Thank you so much for the quick response. At least I am relieved.

I didn't visit any country at all since the time I arrived here in U.S.
What they asked, I just sent it right away which was ALL PAGES OF MY CURRENT PASSPORT.

It's the 12th day already since they received it. Do you have any idea how long is the waiting period?
