Sister-in-law lost all NOAs - how bad is that?

[lgb2015 51]

Hello - we used my husband's sister's address as our mailing address on all our AOS forms (my husband is in the military and we knew we'd be moving to a new state soon after filing and I didn't want things getting lost!). My sister-in-law received the papers back in September but did not forward them on to us. After we moved into our new home I updated USCIS (both mailing and physical address) and asked my sister-in-law to forward the NOAs to us. She just told me that she lost them and can't find them anywhere. I have photos of the NOAs that she sent weeks ago when the NOAs first arrived in the post, but I'm not going to have the physical notices.

 

Here are my questions....

- How bad is it that I will only have copies of my NOAs, rather than physical notices? 

- Are you required to take physical NOA notices to biometrics and I-485 interview? 

 

I will try and call USCIS to see if they can be re-sent, but I know that it is proving difficult to get through to a live representative at the moment!

Copies is all you need.  You take your appointment notice to your biometrics
