False alarm. I went home and talked to my wife. She actually DID hand over the sealed envelope at POE.

Miscommunication on my part. I'm relieved. But I guess I gotta work on my communication?

My wife went to the Frankfurt Consulate in October 2013. They only gave her one envelope. It has a cd of her xray in it. The CBP officer did not open the envelope. We still have the envelope and are about to file I-485. I suppose we will just send it in with the whole packet and the DS-3025?

Yeh I would have done the same if I had known.

What should I do going forward from here? Merely send in the sealed envelope with the rest of my I-485 application?

Also, the Frankfurt Embassy told my wife that the POE "rarely ask for the brown envelope."

The officer saw her K1 and stamped it with the date of entry. He also wrote when it would expire (90 days). He then asked when the wedding date was along with a few other questions.

I know there are other cases of K1's who also did not hand over their envelope when they offered it.

My wife arrived here on November 9th 2013 at Newark Airport as her POE. The CBP officer did not take the brown sealed envelope.

I've tried to discern whether this is a problem or not by reading through the forums, but it is still unclear to me.

Does anyone have experience with this?

I plan on sending the envelope in with the AOS packet.

Thank you!

My fiance arrived November 9th. I checked the I-94 site today. Luckily, I found the record on there.

POE was Newark.

Just got off the phone with DOS.

I gave her my USCIS receipt number. She put me on hold. Came back and asked for my name and DOB. My fiancee name and DOB.

She then gave me my NVC case #. (I haven't received hardcopy yet.) She also told me that my file was sent on 9/18.

I never received any notification that NVC received my file. I didn't get any hardcopy of the NVC case #. This is why it is important to call NVC/DOS.

I never got through to the NVC. But since NVC had sent my packet already, the DOS number had all my information.
