Looking for a little help.
We submitted a marriage based GC application (I130, I130a, I131, I485, I864, I765, I693), but just had it returned in the mail (rejected) due to incorrect payment (we included fee for I765, which was not needed).
In the rejected package we go back, they had split up the original package, and grouped evidence behind each I797 form. The evidence documents were stapled in smaller batches, whilst the original submittal had used metal prong binders.
We are getting ready to resubmit, but had some questions:
1) Should we simply re-submit the package as it was received upon return from USCIS, or should we re structure the package as it was on first submittal?
- I?m inclined to return as received, as it appears they have somewhat sorted things through ? but want to be sure as I would never have sent original submittal like that (not so easy to sort through)
2) The forms completed (I-130, I-485 etc.) now have some grey numbers printed at the bottom (which are scored through on the bottom in some cases, and initialed by a USCIS representative)
- Can we re-submit these as they are, or do we need to fill them out afresh?
3) Form I-693 (which was submitted in a sealed envelope) was opened in the returned package, with the original envelope attached to the back of the form
- Do we need to request a new sealed form from the doctor, or can we submit as is?
4) No passport pictures were included in the returned package - do we need to include more in the re-submittal?
5) Should we keep the I-797 forms that came with the rejection, or include them in the re-submital?
6) Should we mark anything on the outside of the package to indicate it is a re-submital?
Really appreciate any help/guidance you can provide. We had really spent a lot of time organizing the original package, so want to make sure we send this back in the best way.
