RFE to prove cuban citizenship - Cuban Adjustment Act

[tutuno]

FLORIDA
Got a letter from Field Office director asking me to submit more evidence of Cuban citizenship saying that previously submitted Cuban Civil Registry Birth Certificate is not sufficient.

My file date is September 1, 2017 and new Policy Memorandum (PM-602-0154) became effective Nov 21 2017.

If the policy changed after my file date can they legally asked me for more evidence?

See page 7 of the memo:

Policy
Effective immediately, USCIS rescinds its adoption of Matter of Vazquez. Matter of Buschini remains overruled and inoperative, as this memorandum supercedes prior guidance.
