i130 I130 documents scanned in disarray by the lockbox: unsolicited evidence or wait for RFE?

[mzu 1]

Submitted I-130/I-485/I-765/I-131 for my wife. Submitted on paper to the Chicago lockbox. Receipts received within next week. Biometrics scheduled shortly thereafter.

 

All forms were submitted with cover letters, ordered as requested by the USCIS, bound by easily disassemblable binders. and supporting documents of about 400 pages total.

 

However, when I log in to my online USCIS account, and check the I-130 submitted I see some file attached in the section "your uploads". The file is named XXXX-part5.pdf. There is no part1, part2, part3, part4.

The file has  28 pages. It contains a mix of pages from original submitted documents. Like: 1 page from affidavit1, Marriage certificate, 2nd page from affidavit2 translation, checking account documentation, page 2 from affidavit 1 etc.

The number of pages in the file is significantly less than the number of pages submitted (28 vs ~200). Apparently, the lockbox stuff mangled our submission.

Question: should we 

A. wait for RFE/NOID to submit copies of all the documents OR

B. preventatively submit them as unsolicited evidence?

 

When replying please give a reason for your answer.

PS. Same story with I-765 in my wife's online account.

Option A.

Never send unsolicited evidence. Even if you send it with a case number, they usually don’t know what to do with it, causing further delays. Plus, you don’t know how their system works. It might look disorganized to you, but it might be some sort of internal organization.Files usually go to different centers, who knows?

I had a lot of files missing from the online account, but so did a lot of people here. Never got an RFE, received my GC with no issues. They have their own system and they do have your files. Wait for an RFE if there will be any.

No cause for alarm here. We often times give ourselves most of the immigration headaches we suffering from

Can confirm. I work for another federal agency that scans in all documents. We have a public facing portal where "customers" are supposed to be able to see their documents. It is rarely complete or accurate. What you see externally is not necessarily what is happening internally.

Thank you for the advice. We will follow option "A" and post the updates if any
