Can anyone please help

NOA1 was on 14th May and this was received at the petitioners address. Since then she moved and changed her address with USCIS CA.

On July 22nd it was posted on the website ""DOCUMENT OTHER THAN CARD OR TRAVEL DOCUMENT BEING HELD FOR 180 DAYS SINCE RETURNED AS UNDELIVERABLE - posted back 24th July. She immediately phoned thme and re-iterated here address. They couldnt tell her where the package was sent so we assumed it was her old address.

They said it could be 45 working days to re-send so we waited

On 17th August it was posted on the website ""DOCUMENT OTHER THAN CARD OR TRAVEL DOCUMENT BEING HELD FOR 180 DAYS SINCE RETURNED AS UNDELIVERABLE - posted back 14th August.

This is the second time. What can we do?

She lives in an appartment block and the postman leaves all items in a private post box. It is big so in theory should fit. They refuse to go further inn as this is a big block. Does anything need signing for? and therefore are being sent back

Should we change the address again to a friend in a house. Does that have any implications as it isnt going directly to the petitioner and this address is different to her home address? We could change it to her mother but thats another appartment block?

Could it have gone to the original address even though they guaranteed it had changed?

Is it worth getting a lawyer for more finacial clout?

The petitioner is going to phone up today but will be lost in USCIS directory hell in all probability.

Is there anything between NOA2 and the next part, being the London embassy that the petitoner has to do? For example, could the porcess be moving naturally even though she hasnt received anything.

P.S. USCIS never updated their site between the two dates to say what they had sent and when.

Desperate for anyone who have had similar experiences or can help

Contact USCIS and confirm the new address, explain the situation to them.

Perhaps she can go to the post office to ask them to hold her mail there, and she can pick it up directly, or speak to the postman about this letter.

Should we change the address again to a friend in a house. Does that have any implications as it isnt going directly to the petitioner and this address is different to her home address? We could change it to her mother but thats another appartment block?

I would not recommend that.

Could it have gone to the original address even though they guaranteed it had changed?

Most likely - or the website didn't get updated correctly.

Doubtful they would be able to do anything you can't do for free...

The package is normally sent to NVC, then on to the embassy after NOA2 (you will need the hard copy for the AOS though)

Real thanks for this. Yep your views are similar to mine except the changing of address. We are between NOA1 and NOA2 anf have no idea what this package is. It could be an RFE. We dont know the size, where it was sent or anything. Simply that it was sent back. We did phone them last time and they couldnt help us. My fiancee (the petitioner) is going to phone today and hopefully we may get a better clue. Change of address to get it delivered to a house would remove the apartment issue.

I think talking to the post office may help but apparently they are not allowed to hold these legal documents. As said, really in the dark. Very very frustrating

Thanks again for you help

Paul

Yep sorry. Basically we have had NOA1 (mid may). Not had anything since except two updates on the system where a package (as described in the above text) has been returned by the post office. We phone up USCIS in July after the first occasion and they couldnt tell us what it was, or where it was sent!!!! My fiancee (the petitioner) is going to phone again today.

I had a visajourney entry from that first occasion. 1 reply. I think everyone is in the dark like we are

Thanks again for your help. It is appreciated

This is interesting as is your journey details.

The petitioner (my fiancee) received the NOA1 via snailmail at her old address. She then moved. Since then we have been seen someting (deatiled as above) twice. Both times it has been returned to the post office as undeliverable. The first time we couldnt work out where it was sent to. The second time it was defiently sent to her new address.

Couple of points

1) We havent had any email confirmation that this is a NOA2. Does that mean it isnt? If the post was returned, would they have emailed us first?

If they havent emailed us, what could this mean? USCIS couldnt tell us.

2) She lives on a massive appartment block and the number of her appartment would be on the end of address of hte block. Is there a chance that the number has been obscured in the window. Long shot i know but can think why else. My fiancee get all other mail, just not this one.

3) Should we change the address again to a close friend. This is a regular house and would make sure it could be delivered. Can anyone see any downside on this? Will they confuse place of residence with send of address date?

Again, not getting an email saying what it is has worried me. Could it be an RFE? Although USCIS did say that they THINK it is a NOA of some sort. We have recieved NOA1.

As you cn tell, these are dificult times. Any advice would be good

Thanks again

Paul
