In deep trouble? Missed deadline for RFE by 8 days

[kidsturk 0]

I had a request for further information. I have been insanely busy at work, working weekends, travelling etc, and got my dates muddled, resulting in me sending out the further information late.

On the day *I* mailed the evidence, the USCIS mailed a letter to me saying that my petition is considered abandoned and is hereby denied.

It says I now have no residency rights nor right to employment.

However it says the denial is without prejudice to the filing of a new Petition to Remove Conditions on Residence I-751. This confuses me because I apparently am no longer resident.

There are three bases upon which I can appeal and none apply to me.

I am sick with worry and kicking myself after this stupid mistake. Does anyone have any advice?

You need to refile for removal of conditions as soon as possible. Yes you will have to pay all over again and make sure you include all the information that is needed. As soon as you get the new NOA1 with extension for 1 year you will have all the rights you had before.

There is nothing that is more important than your immigration status, Please make this your #1 priority or you will have to leave the US and start your journey from the beginning again outside the US.

I recently got a new I-551, but I assume this will be invalidated by this letter?

Agree with TayRivers. Re-file ROC as soon as possible. Sorry to say that you will have to pay the whole fee again and go back to the end of the line, but at least with the new NOA you will be able to legally work and travel again. Best of Luck to you!

Yes that letter voids any benefits granted with your denied application. You legally are not allowed to work and if you leave the US you will not be allowed to re-enter without a valid visa.

You really need to get the new I-751 filed as quickly as possible.

I hear what you're saying and I agree that this is the clear path. What I'm *hoping* for, is based on conversations I had with people and an immigration officer on that horrific day I realized I was late. They said yes, you're late, no, there are no extensions, and yes, please, send the documents anyway as soon as you can.

So I overnighted them.

I am going to hang my hopes on a Monday morning call to the USCIS to see what the deal is.

Other than that, Monday afternoon I'll start a fresh I-751.

Sorry to hear this.

Is any where on denial notice written, “appeal within 30-days of this denial notice”, if yes, then immediately contact experience immigration attorney and file for appeal ASAP.

If the deadline for an appeal passes, the denial notice becomes final.

Federal and state laws, maybe some state laws are good. Besides that strong reminder I had pasted to our refrigerator door, my wife's legal department reminded her that her conditional card was about to expire and what is she going to do about that? They can be fined up to $16,000.00 by our state for hiring an illegal and that is exactly what she would be without applying for the I-751.

Had no idea how complicated immigration is, just happened to meet my soulmate from a foreign country. Couldn't believe how the AOS part was, plus all the proof we needed that our marriage was not fraudulent. But then our IO tells us, since we were not married two years yet, her card would be conditional, and emphasized the importance of renewing it and how she can get deported if we don't. Weren't you told that? She told us about the I-751, that was news to me, but as soon as we got home, downloaded it and read the penalities, and put a big sign on my refrigerator door. That is something you just don't forget to do.

Think you should be fine for now with that I-551 stamp in your current valid passport, one thing you learn about dealing with the USCIS, if you ask ten different people the same identical question, you will get ten different answers, shouldn't be that way, but it is.
