EB-2 NIW RFE: How Long USCIS Takes to Respond After You Reply

Stay informed with the latest news, updates, and changes in U.S. immigration laws that could impact your EB-2 NIW or EB-1A visa application.

Receiving a Request for Evidence (RFE) on your EB-2 NIW petition can feel stressful, but knowing what to expect after you respond can help you stay prepared.

Always Read Your RFE Notice Carefully

Your official RFE notice will include:

  • Exact instructions for your response

  • Deadlines you must follow

  • Contact details for follow-up

Make sure you review it closely, as requirements can vary.

Processing Timelines After You Respond

With Premium Processing:

  • USCIS will resume reviewing your Form I-140 once it receives your response.

  • If you don’t receive a decision within 45 days, contact the Texas Service Center Premium Processing Unit at [email protected].

Without Premium Processing:

  • Your case also resumes upon receipt of your response.

  • If you haven’t heard back within 60 days, reach out to the USCIS Contact Center at 1-800-375-5283 (TTY: 1-800-767-1833).
