so on 12/13/12 my I-130 petition was approved and untile this day I have not received the approval notice...today my wife went to an immigration appoiment to talk with a immigration officer about the matter and the problems are the following:

1. uscis say they sent the notice via US mail

2. we never recevied the approved notice

3. uscis say there is nothing they can do about it and the only way to get a copy of the approved notice is to file an I-824 (approved application)the fee is $405 USD.

my question to anybody out there that can help me out is:

1. can i send an I-912 fee waiver along with I-824(approved application)

I think its not right to pay and extra 405 USD. when I already Paied $420..is there anybody out there that can help me in this matter.

Thank you.

It's very unfair but you have no choice but pay and get a copy.

It sounds very wicked to be made to pay such an amount of money for a notice that may never have left their office. Its not like they arr doing anything else but to just print out another noticie and mail it to you.

OP I would advice you research well as there has to be a way to go around that fee.

Best wishes.

Others have called and tried to get around payment - but they were told they had to pay. Try calling and see what they say.
