silvazquez27 18 Posted January 27, 2013 So I got a RFE and the envelope that they provided me with is not going to be big enough for all the paperwork I'm about to send back, question is can I use another envelope??? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

silvazquez27 18 Posted January 27, 2013 You are so lucky! How did you get your approval so easily? Notice you are the same age as me. Did you continue going to school? I'm having a hard time gathering evidence from the last five years. I'll be sending my bank statement, rental contracts, gym membership from 2011/2012 some medical bills from when I had my kids and hopefully that will be enough! :/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pswa83 302 Posted January 27, 2013 cool. my bday is in june. i graduated college in december of 2011. after i graduated my bank statements were really the only solid thing i had. had some hospital log records from when my grandma had her stroke last year and some paycheck. i totally thought it was going to take a LOT longer to get approved. i was in the car when i got the text saying my case had been updated, went online to check it and screamed. totally hurt my moms ears...lol i think all the stuff you're going to send should be good.

silvazquez27 18 Posted January 27, 2013 Now I wish I would have continued going to school my counselor told me I wast gonna be able to go to college because I didn't have a ss# so I gave up hope :/ Now I wish I would have done more research! #idiot what did you major in? Congratulations on your graduation! You must feel very accomplished! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pswa83 302 Posted January 27, 2013 in CA, you could have gone to community college or a junior college and paid in state tuition if you attended a CA hs for 3 yrs and graduated from that hs. i did and i emailed the Admissions Office of the community college i went to and they said i could enroll and just needed to have the Dean of Admissions sign off on it and she did. saved me A LOT of money that way because i would have to pay the international student tuition and that (at the time) was soooo much money. you're not dumb or anything for not knowing that you could have gone to school. honestly if it wasnt for my grandpa pushing me to go to school, i probably wouldnt have...lol i graduated with a double major in criminal justice and criminal psychology. with a minor in psychology. it took me 6 yrs but that's because i had to work full time and had to pay for everything (school wise) i do feel a little accomplished because i finished school and am the 1st in my immediate family to have a college degree. i'm happy now that i have a job where my education comes into play a little but hopefully in september i'll start my Masters Degree Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
