Every immigration attorney knows the pressure that comes with RFE season. As USCIS increases scrutiny on employment-based cases — especially H-1B, O-1, EB-1A, EB-2 NIW, and I-140 petitions — even the strongest filings can receive Requests for Evidence.
RFEs slow down case processing, increase attorney workload, and often disrupt client timelines. The challenge isn’t the legal argument…
…it’s the documentation, consistency, and precision USCIS expects and the time it takes to assemble a complete, error-free response.
At International Evaluations, we help attorneys navigate RFE season with confidence by preparing airtight, accurate, and fully compliant documentation so you can focus on legal strategy, not paperwork. Our team specializes in high-volume case support, rapid turnaround, and USCIS-compliant evaluations that strengthen your responses and reduce the risk of delays or denials.
Why RFEs Feel Overwhelming for Attorneys
RFEs demand strict accuracy even small mistakes can trigger further RFEs or case denials. USCIS commonly issues RFEs for:
Inconsistent job descriptions
Missing experience or education verification
Weak evidence of extraordinary ability
Incorrect degree equivalency
Insufficient specialty occupation justification
Ambiguous job duties or employer-employee relationship issues
Missing publications, citations, or expert letters
Incomplete resume and employment history documentation
These issues take hours to fix especially when dealing with high caseloads, tight deadlines, and urgent client needs.
Instead of spending valuable attorney time chasing documents, drafting letters, and correcting inconsistencies, our team ensures your RFE responses are accurate, complete, and USCIS-ready.
