aNOTHER queston about I-824

[madmanmike 196]

Okay, I am in a quandry.

Fiancee (now wife) came over on K-1.

We were both in Thailand during most of the K-1 Process, and we never received our NOA2 Approval of I-129f Thai mail is sometimes a little shaky). Okay, we want to file for AOS, but you need that form.

So, Form I-824 is used to, among other things, getting a copy of the I-129f. (The copy costs $340!!!!!).

Anyway, we submitted it, but it was returned because we did not include the receipt number for the form. Well, if I had that, maybe I had the form, and I didnt't need the copy....

Anyway, what are you supposed to do to get a copy of a form when you don't have the form (nor the receipt number) to reference? I sent all info I had, and there cannot be that many women from Thailand with her name and A# that came in on a K-1 visa, can there?

Any help here is much appreciated.

Did you get any NOAs during your K-1 process? If you did, your case # should be on one of those.

Hey sorry to hear about your dilema.... i don't have any solid advice but we had a similar experience.

We brought it to the interview at the embassy and it did not get returned to us. So who knew we would ever need that again...... since the interview was approved and the data in system somewhere who know that little reciept would ever matter! But when it came time to file for AOS it was a supporting document. We filed to get a copy and a few months and some $$$ later we were denied our request for a simple typo. Out a bunch of $, some time, and still no copy of NOA2.

WE ended up filing without the copy we submitted a letter explaining why there was no NOA2 and copy of the NOA1 so at least they could have the case number and all that official business.

It seemed like it would be enough, an attorney advised us it would be sufficient. But look at our time line!!!!! Maybe that's the hold up who knows!!!

So anyway good luck and consider checking with an attorney many give free consults and would be willing to help advise.
