Isaac was so excited today, he finally received his Visa. We were so happy but then he found out he accidentally opened the envelope for the US embassy that he isn't supposed to open. Now, we are both freaking out. He just opened it before really looking at it and didn't even realize what it was! He feels horrible and now can't sleep because we don't know what this means. Please help...

Some things, not many, are that easy in this crazy immigration process. :thumbs:

Happens a LOT more than you think. Last trip we made to PI the guy sitting next to us in the waiting area for our return flight showed me his package and I noticed he'd opened it. He missed the flight as he went back to USEM and got it resealed.

At the same time I saw a person here on VJ years ago that posted his was opened when he received it and explained what was in it. He went to the US without having it resealed without any problems.

It's not top secret what's inside. Just your paperwork.

K1 denied, K3/K4, CR-1/CR-2, AOS, ROC, Adoption, US citizenship and dual citizenship

!! ALL PAU!

Good point. But in the general sense, it may be wise to get it resealed at the Embassy or Consulate. Getting rejected at the POE would be devastating, for an issue easily resolved at the origin.

No disrespect, but there's no "may" about it. Getting it resealed at the Embassy or Consulate is the only prudent course of action. And I wouldn't exactly call it "easy"—they will check every single document to make sure that everything is as it was when they originally sealed it.

I suspect the odds of being rejected at POE for having an opened envelope are very high due to the possibility that the contents have been altered.

Improved USCIS Form G-325A (Biographic Information)

Form field input font changed to allow entry of dates in the specified format and to provide more space for addresses and employment history. This is the 6/12/09 version of the form; the current version is 8/8/11, but previous versions are accepted per the USCIS forms page.

He was just excited to be getting the visa and didn't even LOOK at the envelope. If he saw that, he wouldn't have done it. He's not stupid, he was just overly joyed at the time and wasn't thinking. Why the hell would he open it if he saw that, man?

Thank you to everyone that helped instead of saying some snotty comment. :)
