notice sent back to USCIS

[ling 0]

Until now i havent rceived NOA for my AOS, but my EAD was updated on line with the the ff:

Current Status: Notice returned as undeliverable.

On October 8, 2007, the post office returned our last written notice on this case as undeliverable. This can have serious effects on the processing of this case. Please call 1-800-375-5283 to update the mailing address so this notice can be re-sent

That is weird because i got my NOA for EAD using the same addres (PO box). How come another related communication would be returned? anyway,i called USCIS they got my PO BOx add and said they would request for it to be sent back to me within 30-45 days. i wasnt told what the notice was but was given a refeence number. hard but cant do anything... for those with similar experience does it really take that long to re-send?

thank you so much!

Hi,

My daughters NOA1 was apparently returned to them as I hadnt put our names at the back of our mailbox and she has

a different surname. I called and was told it would be resent on one occasion, but when it didnt arrive, I called again and was told that it wouldnt be sent at all. They said it wasnt necessary and just gave me the case number over the phone.

1 week later, it arrived????

This set alarm bells ringing, with me thinking that perhaps it had been her biometrics appointment letter, as it hadnt come yet and mine had.

I called again and they put in a service request for a new appointment, and so we wait.

It is very unnerving as I now worry that I could not receive a RFE, or something equally as important.

Still, all you can do is wait, All the best!

hi chloe

thanks for your reply. yes, indeed it is very unnerving!

i was just wondering the first time you called did they tell you how long would it take to re-send the notice? do i have to wait for that long before i could follow up? the representatives are not really nice. it took me 4 calls and 4 different people before they finaliy transferred me to an Immigration Officer who assisted me again (going all over the case) and gave me a reference number but before that i was able to talk with a representative and said the request would be made. it seems to me that despite some calls they dont really make necessary updates.

Same thing happened to me. They sent back my notices because the mailman couldn't see the name that I put on the inside. I ended up doing a change of address (through my lawyer) who told me it wouldn't have any bad consequences on my application to have the address on file different. Anyway, they haven't resent me the notices, and my lawyer told me that it is because he received the same copies of those notices.

But after the 45 days, if you haven't received those notices, I'll recommend that you call them. I was lucky enough to know what was in the notices (via my lawyer), and it was an RFE. Hope it goes well for ya.

thanks for your reply. its just sad that i am in for a long wait for a notice that i dont even know what it is could be the NOA for AOS or probably my biometrics when September filers are already starting to have their biometrics. well... i guess, i just have to accept things as they are at least i am with my husband.

The same thing happened to us. We received every piece of communication they sent us except for the EAD card. On the envelope, it's addressed "LASTNAME, First Initial". In our mailbox it's "First Initial LASTNAME". For some reason our postman couldn't put two-and-two together and decided that we didn't live there.

We were in a panic, thinking USCIS had messed up our address. We called them at least three times to confirm our address, each time they read it back to us correctly and said they would resend it. A month+ passed and they still hadn't resent it.

In the end, we booked an Infopass appointment and spoke to someone who got in touch with the people who send out the cards directly. They sent it in a brown envelope with his full name and full address on the outside and we finally got it about two months after it had been approved.

my thoughts to you is if they drag this out, definitely get an infopass appointment. They can look up your address and make sure they have it in their system correctly and they're the ones who will get in touch with whomever has your card now to get it to you safely.
