Is my money order still good for 2nd try?

[nakm 2]

My I-129f application was rejected because I used an outdated form. My money order was returned to me with a stamp on it from immigration. Does this mean I can resubmit my new forms with this same money order? 

thanks for all the help

I personally would not take the chance and try using that same money order. That’s a decision only you can make. You could try calling USCIS and explaining your situation and asking  them for guidance or you could go to the nearest Western Union for a refund. As long and you have the original Money Order and the Proof of Purchase Receipt, and your ID,, I believe they will have you fill out certain forms and issue a new money order. Hope that helps.

Yes you can resend everything including the money order whatever were already correct. All you need to update is the form.

Thanks for the advice! I figured since they sent it back, I could probably use it again. (Otherwise they woulda kept it).

just wanted to be sure - thanks!

What chance?  It has not been cashed,  cancelled, voided or expired.

I’m just saying that one never knows with USCIS. Better safe than sorry. He has already wasted some time by using the wrong form. I just don’t want him to lose more time. That’s all I’m saying, but ultimately it’s his decision.

The determination on wether it is a good funds or not is Western Union's bank not the USCIS.  Don't blame the USCIS for something that is not in there purview.

I totally understand. Thank you.
