Sent I129F packet 2 wks back, still no NOA

[aaad 0]

I sent I-129F packet to Lewisville, TX address on 11/29, and Fedex tracking shows it was delivered on 12/2. 
I had included G-1450 form to charge my credit card for the fees. I had also included G-1145 to notify me electronically. 
I have still not received any notification and my credit card has not been charged. I am new to this process so I am worried if I made any mistakes

What if I don't hear back for 2 more weeks? Is there a phone number I can call?

This can take 8 weeks easily nowadays. Using credit cards is risky, if we could back in time, I'd recommend using personal check. 

 

I'd start worrying around January 20th onwards...

USCIS sent the whole packet back because I forgot to sign the I-129F form. I feel so dumb. They sent the packet back immediately via USPS and it was sitting in my mailbox for at least a week. I rarely check my mailbox, because I hardly receive any other mail.

 

USCIS has put some kind of stamp at the bottom on every page. The stamp is very long with various numbers. I wonder if I can re-send the same packet again, or will I have to re-print all 50+ pages again. Does anyone have experience about this. I am thinking of calling them tomorrow

I never received an Noa as well. However, about a week after I submitted i got a text message acknowledging the receipt and showing my case number.

Mine took over a month back in July/august timeframe. I had a further mishap where I followed the guidance of a YouTuber that said to put in a copy. So they opened 2 cases and 1 got closed saying I didn’t sign. Now recently I got a notice of action on the site(waiting to see what I get in the mail, yay). When they sent the duplicate back, ALL of the evidence packet came too, except the payment form. I have no idea what USCIS actually got from the lockbox, maybe 0 evidence so I’m going to get an NOID because none of my evidence was forwarded to them. I guess it will allow me to add pictures from another trip I made to visit my fiancé last year and formally propose to her.

Sorry you had to deal with that. I see that happen all over from TikTok and YouTube.  Usually in the form of how much additional evidence or some pretty trapper keeper. Plenty of that leaks over here too. Usually with good intent.

I got my letter, it was a noid. They say I didn’t include proof of citizenship , Intent to marry, and proof of meeting in person. All of which was originally submitted, but like I mentioned earlier, it was all sent back to me by the lockbox group. Now I have less than a month to resubmit.

It took a week for us to get our NOA after our petition was sent.

 

I wouldn't be following someone off social media for this process though. Either check the USCIS instructions on their site, ask people on this forum or consult with a lawyer.
