Forgot to include payment cheques with i485 and i765

Like the title says. Spent a whole week preparing the package and when it came time to mail it I forgot to include the payment cheque with the package. I feel so stupid. We tried getting it intercepted but USPS wasn't able to (even though we let them know literally only 2 hours after we dropped the package off). I looked it up online and it seems the best course of action is to wait for the rejection notice but I don't know how long it takes and I only have 50 days left on my k1 visa.
 

I'm really stressed. Does anyone know if I should file again before I receive my original just wait and hope they send me the packet back on time. I’ve been told by others refiling asap is the better course of action since i don’t wanna risk overstaying.

Send a new package with the check now.  The first package will be immediately rejected without payment, so there should be no conflict.

 

Good Luck!

I know you get a green rejection letter with your packet back which you’re supposed to include on top of the resubmitted packet. Can I ignore that when i get it then and just do refile now? My only worry is what if they’re expecting that packet to be returned as well.

You are submitting the same packet.  This is not a RFE response, this is an automatic rejection.  What would be the difference if you forgot to include the first three pages of the I485, you cannot re-submit the exact same package.

 

That being said it is up to you.  You can wait, but you seemed to be stressing a little over this, and the 50 days aspect.

 

Good Luck!

I see. In that case I’m recompiling a new packet and sending it this week. Thankyou so much!
