Hello everyone,

I mailed my husband's I-485, I-765 to the Chicago Lockbox, but the whole package was returned today with a letter that boldly stated OUT OF JURISDICTION. The letter instructed states that the Chicago Lockbox does not process Employment Based Adjustment of Status. Everything, including the cover letter clearly stated that this was a family based petion. Has anyone had this experience before ? What do we do next ?

Thanks

I would be calling them! That is really weird that that would happen. I don't have much experience with this stuff, but something is really screwy there. I'd call them and ask them what's going on, and make them pay for the postage to send it back! :P

deedot,

Sounds like a new or hungover file clerk reviewed the submission. I'd do as MATTOB suggested and resubmit, with an un-missable note that this application is marriage based, not employment based.
