Oops! Now what?

[NickF]

Starting the I-485 process, and we need copies of both sides of her I-94 form. ChunMei insists that they never gave it back to her when we came through Immigration in LA. Now what?

is it stapled in her passport?

Yep, should be stapled in passport, this card should say departure record and show the 90 day time period.

Is that the I-94? I was looking for something like they give out on the airplane, or like theone I found in Wikipedia. And where the hell do I send the I-485 paperwork? Looking at the USCIS website is like wandering around in a mirror maze.

 

I figure instructions are there, but I sure as hell can't figure them out. But then I'm having trouble firguring out the instructions at Visajourney, too. Old age must have set in.

Mail location for I-485 is: http://www.uscis.gov...00045f3d6a1RCRD

 

It will be mailed to a PO Box in Chicago IL, use priority mail with delivery confirmation.

 

I-485 info here: http://www.uscis.gov...00045f3d6a1RCRD

 

Great directions that I used is here: http://www.visajourn...om&page=k1k3aos

 

One more thing, send only photo copies of things like I-94, Marriage cert, IRS returns etc, As for affidavit of support, if you are sponsoring just one immigrant, you can use I-864EZ, and attach IRS transcripts to it.

Well no longer a topic about getting a visa, is an Adjustment of Status topic, so will be moved..

Thanks much for the help.

 

As I get older I get stupider, I think. Among other things the Visajourney instructions said to send copies of both sides of the I-94, and there isn't anything on the other side.

 

I'm easily confused, and often distracted by shiny objects.
