Hi all,

Sorry if this bothers you. We already received NOA1 today and we wanted to change the check address because we put the wrong address on it "USCIS" instead of "U.S Department of Homeland Security". Please help us if you know there is any way that we can add the new check for them and how long does it take for them to send us back our papers if they reject?

Thank you so much.

If you already received NOA, the check has been bot accepted and cashed - no need to send a new one.

If it isn't difficult, it isn't worth it.

Hi there,

Thank you for your information. Actually, we haven't receive the notice by mail yet but we did receive an email of acceptance of our case and they provided us the case number. But I worried that they cannot cash the check because of the wrong address on the check. Do you know failure to pay fee makes our case deny or not?

If they couldn't cash the check, the entire package would've been returned to you. That didn't happen. You have a case number, your case is accepted. Nothing more to worry about.

My mistake-We have a receipt number, not a case number. It came with the email that said our package had been received at Chicago and sent to Nebraska for processing. We called the USCIS number and explained our situation. The girl there was very nice and told us that as far as they could tell, it had been accepted. I'm still not 100% confident. I guess we can wait to see if the check gets cashed.

Since they sent your file to a service center, the check cleared; as another poster pointed out, your file wouldn't have been forwarded had the check not cleared.

Don't stress this any further, this process is stressful enough without getting hung on things like this.

While the check was technically made out incorrectly, DHS made a decision to accept it anyway and it cleared the bank (your bank should be able to provide you with confirmation soon).

If you got NOA1 then you are fine. Your case and check has been accepted!
