Due to my profession, I deal with the IRS quite a bit. Sometimes, when we receive mail, the address is completely screwed up. Most often the address has a whole bunch of symbols instead of numbers. Kinda like if someone held down the shift key on the keyboard while typing numbers.

My belief is that the printer that prints out the letters sometimes starts glitching and starts printing out symbols instead of numbers.

When we call, the person always tells us the address is correct on file. Therefore, the error must have occured during the priniting process.

Maybe it is same situation for the USCIS.

Has anyone ever offered a theory as to why these pieces of mail are returned as undeliverable even if they are valid, longtime addresses? Especially if other USCIS mail is delivered without a problem, but one piece inexplicably goes missing?

Actually, I do have a theory. Last year I received my renewal AP and I was extremely surprised - and impressed -that the Post Office delivered it. The reason? The ink on the address was so badly smeared that the name was illegible, the City and state were illegible, and only part of the street address - including the number, and the zip code were legible if you took the trouble to look closely. It looked like something was placed on top of the ink while it was still wet and pulled past as the smear extended across the whole envelope. I tested the ink - it was not water soluable so it means that whatever smeared the ink happened at the source just after the label/envelope had been printed. It originated from Lee's Summit, Missouri and was postmarked Oct 17, 2005.

If they haven't fixed the machinery that prints and stamps envelopes I can well see other envelopes being smeared in such a way as to make the address illegible - and thus undeliverable.

“...Isn't it splendid to think of all the things there are to find out about? It just makes me feel glad to be alive--it's such an interesting world. It wouldn't be half so interesting if we knew all about everything, would it? There'd be no scope for imagination then, would there?”

That's really bad, as it causes people get denied for not showing up for interview or biometrics appointments, because they never get their appointments letters. Uscis neglect and carelessness keeps surprising me more and more...

that happened to me as well all my NOA1s and my marriage ceritificate.

I went to post office and they said their computer does that sometimes(what the!!) for no reason.

I'm not sure how the USPS works, but I guess before mailman comes to our mailbox, computer sorts mail and distribute?

So they erase all my information in the computer and put my name again! for sure this time it works.

Ever since that I haven't got any letter from uscis yet, I just did my biometircs today and I hope I get my EAD soon, what if it returns to USCIS as nondiliverable? don't want to think about it.

*Last Journey Started*

Maybe you should go for an infopass appointment if it's not too far away from you, and explain them what happened and your worries. They might help.

Or you can contact your congressman and ask for help, they can make an inquiry(?) for your case and find out what was in that undeliverable letter, this way you won't miss on any important information that might have been in that letter. From my own experience I know congressmen can be quite helpful with finding out information about your case.

i tried calling uscis and asking for a supervisor, unfortunally system was down, also supervisor said she was not an immigration officer so i guess she wouldnt be able to help me anyway

i will try calling again tomorrow just in case and i will get an infopass and see what happens

We had an RFE that we never received. I suspect it was never sent.

"The fact that we are here today to debate raising America’s debt limit is a sign of leadership failure. It is a sign that the U.S. Government can’t pay its own bills. It is a sign that we now depend on ongoing financial assistance from foreign countries to finance our Government’s reckless fiscal policies."

The Twilight USCIS Zone

Or the Twilight USPS Zone. Grrr @ the USPS. :angry:

im gonna print the uscis email and show it to my mailman he is a nice guy perhaps can find out for me hmmmm mission imposible?

I'm having the same problem with my husband's I-765 and I-485. When we made an error the applications were returned without a problem. We received an NOA for the I-765 but not for the I-485 (filed at a different center).

We found out that the Chicago office made a typo on our address, but its only one letter that shouldn't throw the mailman off. The other application, I-765 has the right address but somehow nothing they send arrives.

I'm beginning to think nothing was ever sent. This is just a way to explain incompetence.

- 1/05 While applying to grad school, fiance and I do research and gather from friends' experiences that it should only take 3 months to a k-1 visa. Summer wedding here we come!

- Early 2/05, fiance mails his signed copy of the 325 to me (don't know if this step was necessary)

- Late 2/05, Signed 325 lost in mail. Fiance resends signed 325

- 3/4/05, 325 and 129 packet sent to Vermont Center

- 4/3/05, packet returned...I put the wrong amount on the check

- 4/4/05, packet resent

- 4/8/05, USIC sends notice of receipt/action (my mother begins suggesting names for her grandchildren)

- 5/06, Received Notice of Approval dated 5/03

- 5/12, Received notice that petition would be sent in 1 week to embassy in Dakar

-6/3, No longer trust postal system, I send complete Affidavit of Support package with co-worker traveling to Dakar

-6/8, Fiance receives his packet 3 instructions and forms Yeah!!!

-6/9, Fiance called new embassy visa hotline and got interview date for Sept. 12

-6/12, Visa approved and picked up on 6/14
