I-824 was sent to the CBP instead of USCIS

[Shahzoda 29]

Hi Guys, 

 

So the i-824 form that we filed for approved i-130 form for my brother, was sent to CBP instead of USCIS. It is so messed up because I scared that CBP will get the check, and reject the application instead of returning. I tried to call USPS to reroute or stop the package delivery, they are saying, you cant do anything since the label just created. Do you know what to do in this case? Do you know what will CBP do with my application? Please, I am open to any suggestions. Thank you

CBP will reject the packet and send it back to you, your check will be in the packet. Your choices are to 

1. Wait it out , a couple of weeks at most, do nothing 

2. Put stop payment on check and wait or prepare new filing 

3. Do a new I-824 w new check and send to right address now

 

WHY is there a need for I-824….what happened?

Thank you so  much for a reply!!!! Are you sure they are not gonna use the check for reviewing and rejecting the document? I am sooo worried, because it is not a small amount of money. What if I use the new check and send the package, and both USCIS and CBP use the check and charge me ? Getting some acutually to talk in USCIS and CBP is impossible. Thank you once again for your replies

Who did you write the check to? If made payable to US dept of hom security, CBP can't cash that check.
