In case any of you were wondering:

The year is not 2008.

If you write 9/8/08 on a check to Homeland Security,

your package gets returned.

Off to slit my wrists now as I am obviously too stupid to live. :lol:

LOL, don't be so hard on yourself.

After waiting for 2 months for an NOA-1, while not even knowing if the package arrived there, because my husband sent it by regular mail (mistake #1) it was sent back. Because my DH, accidently sent a copy of our G-325 instead of the orignal.

Not funny for you right now but hopefully you will be able to laugh about this later. At least you know Homeland Security was awake enough to spot the error...A good sign I would say :)

Best wishes for your re-submission.....Neil.

The amazing part of this, is that they sent it back only 8 days after you filed.

At least it didn't take them 30 or more days to return it you. That would have been much worse.

I guess you now have a second chance to review your entire packet.

Did you get that nice letter that told you you goofed? W did, it said to return that letter and place it at the top of the package to give us priority of new submissions.

Three days, if you count that it got there on the 11th plus travel time to return the whole ####### to me.

The letter did tell me I goofed. The rest of the packet's been gone through, and it seems okay. (Looks like they nearly missed the date, too.) I'll return the letter with it with a note ('Oops, sorry.') and maybe I should note it on the envelope, but I can't figure out what to write. It's not an RFE. It's 'TOTAL F*CKING IDIOT RECALL.'

My husband was told, since his cheque was not cashed and no file was created for us to mark 'oringal submission'. I'm sure they will figure out the mix up when the see the letter they sent you.

Bless your heart! Dont feel too badly, USCIS is infinitely more stupid than any of us. Not only did it take them 3 months to start issuing IMBRA questionnaires, they left the freakin' questionnaire out of the envelope they sent me! Got the RFE letter, got the letter explaining the new law, but no questionnaire. Believe me, you're not stupid, just anxious to have your honey with you. Here's hoping things go smoothly and quickly on the rest of your journey. :D
