Pending EB 485 applicants are receiving following email or text from USCIS. Apparently USCIS is urging everyone to courier their i-693 RFE response so that they can approve the 485 before end of the fiscal year in 09/30 and EB FY2021 does not go to waste as much as possible.
It feels like USCIS is preparing to do a frenetic two month sprint and there will be a lot of approvals in the coming months.
Email content:
USCIS has identified a number of applicants for employment-based adjustment of status without a valid medical clearance (Form I-693, Report of Medical Examination and Vaccination Record) who will receive a Request for Evidence (RFE) soon. If you have applied for adjustment of status based on employment and have not yet submitted Form I-693, we urge you to respond to the RFE as soon as possible so that we may adjudicate your case and, if approvable, allocate an immigrant visa before October 1, 2021. Here’s how: return the RFE response with valid medical clearance to the address on the notice. USCIS accepts responses sent by mail (including overnight and other priority options), commercial services, and courier.
