Who handles an EB-5 case after an RFE has been answered?

I filed my EB-5 I-526 on Nov. 20, 2019. I have received a Request for Evidence for my case, which is mainly about the source of funds. Will my case go back to the same employee after I answer the letter? Does it get forwarded to someone else? Is there any way to have it transferred?

The case should go back to the adjudicator that reviewed your case and issued the RFE.

It would normally go to the officer who sent the RFE - you can request supervisor review if you and your attorney believe the RFE was in error for some reason but still respond.

Supposed to go back to the same examiner.

Usually, the same officer that sends the RFE is the officer that analyzes the final merits of the case.

The same officer who sent the Request for Evidence, unless he or she is transferred. No, you cannot request a different CIS officer.
