So.. quick question. My fiance finally got his K-1 and arrived to the US on June 7th. We are planning our wedding for July 23rd and I am preparing all the forms to adjust our status in the mean time so we aren't too worried with it during our wedding and honeymoon. Well.. the man who processed him into the states gave him back a sealed envelope that says "Do not open" and then says "Contains medical forms" or something along those lines (Don't have it in front of me at the moment, it's locked safely at home) Obviously it says "Do not open" but I'm not sure if that has the medical form we need that's signed by the Civil Surgeon.. The guy who processed Mark into the states just handed it back to us and said "I'm going to let you guys hold on this for the status adjustment" So I guess my question is...Just send it to the USCIS still sealed and hope that it has all the medical forms we need? I've done tons of reading on this site and I just have never really seen anybody mention the border control just handing over an entire sealed envelope, I could be wrong though. Ah.. just to clarify a little better, he did open the big brown folder and go through that, the envelope he handed to us still sealed is just a regular sized white envelope overly stuffed. Anyway :) Thanks for all you guy's help! I definitely think I would have been lost without the help of VJ during this whole filing process!

CBP was not supposed to give that back. It is supposed to be logged at the entry and then CBP is supposed to send it to USCIS.

Was he given an I-94 in his passport?

Also going to move this to the adjustment of status forum.. as this is about adjustment of status.

He was given an I-94, already applied for his ssn, and actually we've already received it in the mail (Surprised me how fast it came)

Should I call the USCIS? Or just send it to them when we do file for everything?

Also sorry about the misplacement of the post!! Thanks for moving it for me :)

So they must have logged it anyways and then given it back to him! thats lucky lol

( no worrys about the post )

I would send it to USCIS with the AOS package and include a note about how CBP gave it back at entry. Make sure the note says its from the K-1 package etc.

Lol! Well that's a relief, I was a little worried because the CBP never opened this particular envelope, but maybe he has copies of everything they needed in the bigger brown envelope and just returned the smaller one.

I guess I will keep it sealed and write a small note like you mentioned and hope for the best!

Yep! He didn't even bother to open it.. Just handed it back to us and said that he'd let us handle that for the AOS, Which I thought was strange..

Same happened to me in San Francisco, I send it with the AOS package.cool.gif

Kinda of relieved that we aren't the only ones this happened to! Thanks for your help! :)
