Yes. Reset your clock to the day they received your response.

Thanks for the responses! I received a yellow letter today, dated Sept 6, which is when they said they sent the request for initial evidence. However this form just says it is a notice that I will have to submit the I-693 medical form at a later time/ bring it to the interview.
Is this the request for initial evidence, or am I still waiting for it? The notice on My Case Status says they won't work on my case until they receive the evidence - that is why I am thinking perhaps this letter is not it.

gradapplicant is no longer active in the forum. I hope someone else have some information. Waiting for an RFE letter is the worst.
In summary, while it sucks to get RFE/RFIE, waiting for the letter, and hoping they don't want anything extra again.... it will be okay, you guys. Majority of people get these for insufficient documents (mine was I-864 related), missing a notary sign, translation errors, etc. Make sure you send them everything they ask AND THEN SOME. Showing more evidence is not a bad thing. You'll find out soon enough, and it will be fine.2018 Marriage-based AOS (I-130, I-485, I-765)

hopefuly not
Now that's the official version. I have heard from other people that an RFIE did not affect their processing time for other applications, or that it only gradually slowed down their processing time. If you're checking some of the online trackers, you'll see that some people received their I-765 only 2-3 months after they submitted their RFIE.
Of course, for other people, it apparently significantly delayed their processing times.1/10/2019: Filed AOS (NBC, marriage-based)
1/24/2019: USCIS sent Request for Initial Evidence.
1/31/2019: Biometrics appointment.
2/1/2019: Fingerprint review completed.
3/15/2019: Request for Initial Evidence returned to USCIS.
4/18/2019: USCIS sent Courtesy Letter.
4/23/2019: Case is ready to be scheduled for an interview.
6/11/2019: Filed EAD expedited processing request through Congressman.
