incorrect check

[remconds 0]

Hi following on from a previous post, I also filled out the check incorrectly. I am from the US, and did not know about writing the 00/100 at the end of the amount. (I have been writing checks here in the US though for years without this ever being a problem.)

Anyway, I see that my check has not been cashed yet, I sent it last monday, should I send another check with a letter, and see if they can be matched up somewhere, or do I need to wait for my package to be returned? I see that the other poster waited nearly a month to get their package back, I would like to avoid this is possible, by sending another check.

Or, is it possible that my check will be accepted without writing the 00/100 on it?

Personnally, I would wait, just so as not to confuse issues. I know it sucks having to wait, but maybe you get some nice person or a beginner at the bank:) and they don't notice it? Thats just me personnally.

I received my application on May 1st, and it was post marked May 20th, and I received it on the 23rd. So give it a little time.

Good Luck

Don't know why his check was returned - I wrote five hundred and forty-five dollars followed by ------- til the end the check where it is printed dollars and the check was cashed without any problems.

That was a weird rejection - I suppose the person checking it had some banking experience.

I do not write 00/100 on any of my checks and have had no problems with USCIS or anyone for that matter.

Guess it's just a luck of the draw.

I would wait. I am sure that there is a lot of people that wrote the check the way you did and the checks passed OK. That rejected case for me was very bad luck with an officer in bad mood or something like that.

I am very happy that I wrote my check with the 00/100

Good luck.

That's not why. I didn't write 00/100 either. Went fine.

Never wrote 00/100 on any of the checks we sent from K1 all the way to Citizenship and now for the parents IR5 visa. Never had any of them rejected.
