Roughly 5 working days. They had already coded, and scanned the paperwork into their system, so it was a case of the USCIS cashing the check and sending a receipt. 

how can we find out about the code

About 2 months 

after resending a package after rejection, will they response faster the second time or it will start from scratch, from your experience in the forum

My initial package was rejected due to Capital One believing USCIS request for payment was fraudulent. It took approx. 8 weeks for Chicago lockbox to return my package. 

 

Once received, I returned the package (UPS overnight delivery) using checks as opposed to credit card for payment method. I received my work permit two weeks later in the mail. Still waiting for my i-485 to be adjudicated on. 

 

Frustrating that I had to wait 8 weeks, however re-submitting application my push you further down the line, or cause confusion with USCIS who will assume you have two active applications. 

How long did it took for them to send you the receipt after you resent the package overnight.

Yes just follow all the instructions and keep us updated.

We will re-rearrange the money order which is the reason that it states in the 765 notice.

It would be sister

 

I personally never used money orders, I always used personal checks as I wanted to make sure they do not reject the package for any reason. 

But through the years of reading here, I’ve read success stories of multiple money orders so you might be okay. So in your case, it would be one money order of $500, one money order of $500, one money order of $440 and another money order for $260. Just make sure the amounts are exact and I would definitely do the $260 separately as USCIS has a new rule that you can’t combine everything into one amount for separate forms. 

We will do that Sista 🙂

They advised to place the Yellow or Green letter on top of the package. We will restructure the money orders now and then Send it separately.

The I-765 fee is wrong, it’s $260.

Okay thank brother, Do we have to make one money order for 1440 and then another for 260 or they would accept three moeny orders of $500 

465 $1440?

765 $260

WE have three money orders of 500 and we will make one for $260, can we mix it like that? because they don't money orders above 800

We need the help of ALL the people in the FORUM.   

The green letter say we have rejected your benefit request for the resons indicated on form I-797C, I have included a white letter which is the I-797C and the reason as We understand is becuase of incorrect payments. we have sent $1960

G-1145  $0

I-485  $1440

I-765 $520

I-864  

WE sent money orders and they still said the amount is incorrect

They will reject the package and send it back to you. 

I was looking at the employment base AOS, We sent it to the right lockbox the Family base which New york is Chicago lockbox, I was sweating

I have a question I think we sent it to the wrong lockbox

The USCIS chicago lockbox 

instead we should sent it to the New york one which is in Ilinois but Carol Stream instead what would happen in that case?

Can someone help? is this case they would re-route it to Carol Stream?

You might have not do the right the about Western Union. Not sure about thank as they have ways to the payments to be made. Could you please help to update your profile with the application that you have submitted. This link will have more information about payment. Filing Fees | USCIS

What do you mean to update the profile we have submitted?

2 minutes ago, M and Mike said:

Nope, you have to first received NOA1 and money has been taken from your account.

We sent money orders and called to Western Union money order and they have not been cashed, The package was received on the 26 of may confirmed by the USPS postal service. So what do you think is happening in this case, they received the package but havce not cashed the money orders

Is there a way to know if they have processed the application without getting the NOA1

What is the address it has to be sent for AOS in New york

USCIS sent me a note my petition was sent to NVC on April 17th. Any idea when I can hear back from them?

 

I tried to schedule a medical appointment this morning but they said I need the interview appointment confirmation and welcome letter.

I've been waiting 40+ days, but others are hearing back after ~20.

The trick is sending them a email trough the website form or email, after 10 days another after 15 days requesting the Case number, They sleep on it you have to be on top of your application that's how we did it back in oct. We got it after emailing them next day, May of us got it that way.

The OP's K-1 visa was just issued today. 

We might have plenty of time to collect all the money from now and then. The journey just began

As said above, nothing for you to do really. As the DoS website says "Note: Visa applicants must qualify on the basis of the applicant's residence and ties abroad, rather than assurances from U.S. family and friends. A letter of invitation or Affidavit of Support is not needed to apply for a visitor visa. If you choose to bring a letter of invitation or Affidavit of Support to your interview, please remember it is not one of the factors used in determining whether to issue or deny the visa."

 

Where is your sister from? Some countries are tougher than others, and the wait time for an interview varies hugely as well.

My sister is from dominican Republic, I am a US citizens, She is a teacher, Almost retiring. She has a good job.

Welcome to the forum.

 

 

 

You don't. Unlike some other countries, there is no official sponsorship for a tourist visa to the US. So there is nothing for you to do. Your sister has to file on her own. And she should show that she has strong ties to her home country. 
 

Here is a helpful link for your sister to review the process:

 

what a coincidence, My sister is from Dominican Republic

Can we file for each form individually like the Work permit before the other forms?

We might now have the whole package money to start right away. We will have to wait for a while.
