Also, we just requested a non-delivery noticed, stated that the letter was damaged and hopefully they send us another clean one.

Hi all, happy holidays! So 4-month after we submitted our I-751 application we finally received our receipt notice in the mail. However, we noticed the postal worker circled the envelop a little bit bit too hard with pen, it punctured the envelope, and actually marked up our letter! (see attachments) Now we are worried if the original receipt notice is still valid for us to use when traveling abroad/applying for job. The letter still has the petitioner section which shows the name and A-number, but as you can see the name on the mailing address part has been marked up (blue ball point pen). The good thing is we have an online USCIS account so we can also print out a copy of the letter and bring it along with the marked up original. So do you think this is good enough to use for traveling or might have some issues? Thanks!

Thanks, we just emailed FOIA and requested to cancel. We will try other ways to get the receipt notice.

So today we filed a FOIA request for the I-751 application and Receipt Notice (it's been 4 months after filing but still no receipt notice). Is this a bad idea? After reading some stories about cases being delayed after filing FOIA request, we are a bit scared that we might made a mistake.

Hi all, I hope you all had a great Thanksgiving! We have some concerns regarding our I-751 case and want see what you all think would be the best steps for us to take from now on: 1. We filed our I-751 in early August this year and was never received anything in the mail. 2. After a couple of months passed, we decided to call USCIS and an officer actually provided us a receipt number for our case and we can see our Case Status Online as below: 3. I was also able to request an Online Access Code to add our case under USCIS online account, however, there's no Notice to download under the Documents section: 4. We called USCIS again and this time was told that our Receipt Notice was never scanned/generated. I emailed the Lockbox as suggested by the Officer, but got a reply that the Lockbox does not print notices for I-751 filings and we should initiate an inquiry with the adjudicating service center (we were told it's Potomac Center which is a little bit weird since we live in west coast and shouldn't the closest center be California Center?) 5. We filed a Case Inquiry online for not receiving notice by mail but it's been more than 30 days but haven't heard anything back. We are a little bit concerned on what to do next as my spouse's green card has expired earlier this month and she is not able to travel internationally, find a job, or even get her driver's license. We tried to schedule an in-person appointment but never heard anything back after 30 days. Should we continue to file case inquiry online? Call/mail/email Potomac Center? Or should we contact our Ombudsman or local congressman? Any advice or suggestions are greatly appreciated. Thank you!
