Hi all,
I was nearing the end of my green card journey (had green card interview on Aug. 29, 2019) until I received an RFE that didn't make sense to me.
It was a medical RFE telling me that my I-693 was invalid according to the new rule enacted on Nov. 1, 2018 and that I would need to complete the medical form all over again.
After reading the rule over and over again.. I don't understand how my medical form is invalid.
I completed my medical and got it signed on Nov. 7, 2018.. so under the new rule I would need to submit my I-485 application within 60 days after this date for it to remain valid correct? I don't remember exactly when I officially submitted the I-485 but it was around a week before Christmas. To check for certain, I shuffled through my I-797 NOA's and found the I-485 notice stating the received date as Jan. 04, 2019. So USCIS had received my I-485 application 58 days after the I-693 signature. 59 even if you count that last day.
So what's going on here? Is it possible that USCIS make a counting mistake or am I missing something here?
It's so frustrating having to waste time going through another medical, especially since mine isn't even a year old yet sigh.
