Notice not delivered (foreign address)

[jda0008 0]

Hi, this is my first time posting on this site, but I'm stuck and desperate for help.

I'd really appreciate any guidance if anyone has dealt with a similar issue.

And I hope this post can be helpful for others in the future as well.

 

PROBLEM

I filed I-130 for my wife in March.

I filed online and promptly received a PDF of my receipt notice.

However, I still haven't received the receipt notice in the mail, even 7 months later.

Since I have a PDF of the notice, I suppose it really isn't crucial to have a paper copy.

But, I'm worried that I will also fail to receive future mailings.

 

POSSIBLE REASON(?)

We have a foreign address.

The address fields on the USCIS site didn't allow me to input our lengthy foreign address clearly with the right formatting.

Maybe the notice was misdelivered?

 

FAILED SOLUTION

I contacted USCIS about this issue through my online account.

I sent a correctly-formatted version of our (long) foreign address.

However, they ignored the correction and just sent me the standard Change of Address page.

But, the Change of Address page only allows US addressed to be entered.

 

Has anyone had a similar problem with a foreign address? Thanks!

Did you put in a US based mailing address in the I-130?

Hi, thanks for your response. Since my wife and I currently live together in Korea and I don't have a US mailing address yet, I only wrote the foreign address.
