Accidentally sent $590 check instead of $680 or??

[datdbdoe 2]

hi,

 

I am removing conditions (i751) and I might have mistakenly sent a check worth $590 and not $680.

I was checking the USCIS website today and noticed it says $680 now!, I can swear it was $590 at the time of my filling. The package was sent on December 27 and arrived on December 29, 2016.

 

$595, effective 12 a.m. Eastern U.S. time, December 23, 2016. (You may be required to pay an additional $85 biometric services fee for a total of $680. See the form Instructions for payment details.)

 

Can anyone confirm if I am right or wrong?

Will I get the package back and have to send it again, is there any 'grace period'?

 

Thanks

Yes, you will get the package returned.

There's no grace period...they'll open it and then send it back for you to re-send with the correct fee.

god damn it

but was it really 590 or I was wrong from the beginning? 

[Cheezees 1,514]

That was the old fee.

[geowrian 22,335]

It was $505 + biometrics ($85) = $590. So yes, that was the old fee.

Patience.  You will need it during this process.  

 

You are one of hundreds of thousands of cases.  A three day holiday weekend and a few working days is hardly enough time for them to open, process, and resend your submission to you.

I did the same thing, or almost the same thing. Forgot to add the fee for biometrics. It was returned. It didn't take long though, don't worry about it too much.

I agree with soapface.  You committed a good faith error that happens, I am sure all the time.  The only  way to avoid this errors, is to double and triple check the package before mailing, and if you can have somebody else that knows about the process, to go over it for you.

Thank you for everyone who responded. On a bright note, it gave me time to re-evaluate my supportive evidence and I added some more.

Please let me know if the list below should be sufficient enough -

Now, this is a lot of information, and I am looking for the easier way to present it to the immigration-

Do I write on each paper on the top what is it? or just keep them as-is printed and send them and let them figure it out?

Is there anything that you would add?

 

Thanks!
