Hello January filers!

 

I got on the mail today my whole package back and I hope you guys can help me figure something out. They stated that they rejected my i-485 (plus i-131, i-765) because of the incorrect amount.

But, as far as I know, we had to pay 1,225$ (1,140+85 for biometrics), right? Maybe they rejected because when I went to Walmart to get the money order, they couldn't do one for 1,225 so they did 2 orders (725+500).

That's the only explanation I could find. Can anyone help me?

 

Thanks!

 

That's a bummer, I used cashier's check from my bank since I couldn't decide whether to use a personal check or not. My only guess would be, how you split the payment.

I wrote two cashier's check for $1,225 (I-485 + Biometrics) and $535 (I-130) on the memo part I wrote what they were for.

Just got the biometric notice in the mail. Notice date: 01/12/2018. Appointment date: 01/31/18. Planning to walk in next week. Good luck everyone!

Oh My! I received the appointment letter yesterday and my appointment is exact on the same day as yours albeit in Seattle. I don't know how busy the place is and since I live about 50 miles away I am gonna walk in maybe on Wednesday or Thursday.

 

 All the best.

My appointment is this Thursday and I am just gonna keep it and go that day. I have no reason to go in earlier anyway. lol I am gonna drop my husband off at work that day and head the hour north to Denver and spend the morning with my friend there and then take her out to lunch before I head to my 2pm appointment and then head home just in time to pick up my husband from work.

Did you raise an inquiry with USPS?

Good luck! I live in LA and after reading a thread of the office I’m about to go I decided to walk in early. Hope everything works out!

USPS said my package will definitely arrive into USCIS by this Saturday. 

I should not send this by USPS in the beginning, sigh....

Should I wait or I should resend?

Call them that you want to raise an inquiry, that would at least trigger some check by the postman's superior. I will also say, just wait. because sending another one now as earlier said will cause confusion with the USCIS. Don't worry all will be well. I know the wait can be very frustrating. You are close already. you may be surprised that it has been delivered.

 

It updated on the USPS tracking that mine was delivered on 7th January. however when I got my NOA it stated that my file was received on 5th January.

I think you should wait a few days then call back USPS by mid week!

Just find out a really good app for anyone who already received receipt numbers: In APP Store search: USCIS, it should come up first called"Case Tracker", you can import your USCIS account with all the receipt numbers and the app will send you a notification whenever there is an update on your case!
