Cancel withdrawal of petition I-130

[Motip05 0]

I had sent in a letter to USCIS saying I wanted to withdraw my petition for my wife as we were thinking of filing for divorce as I thought she had only married me for the green card, that is what I wrote in the letter. We sorted through our issues and I do not want to withdraw the petition anymore, what should I do now?

Once it's done you have to start over again. And pay application fees again. You can't reverse the withdrawal.

This is correct.

 

Also OP you should expect some extra scrutiny based on your unfortunate “only married for the green card” statement.

You cannot withdraw a withdrawal. You will need to file a new I130. 
Even if the first I130 is approved do not act on it. A few years back, a member entered on a withdrawn petition and this error was only caught at N400 stage. They had to return to their home country as they had no actual status in the US. 
Perhaps someone can find it- I’m having no luck right now.

Add on: the letter has only been delivered to USCIS, and there is already a note on my account saying that I do not want to withdraw the case anymore. The case has not been officially withdrawn yet. Is there any hope for this to be sorted out easily?

Read this case @Motip05

The petitioner asked for them to reinstate the k1 and was assured it was reinstated…

Tteok-bokki for you. Look for me to collect. 

 

@Redro should be considered for mod-ship.
