HELP: rejected/returned package due to missing signature

[yinander]

Our application was returned today due to missing signature of sponsor on I-864. There’s scanned numbers on each page and scribbled line on first page of each section forms. I really don’t want to reprint the whole thing; can we just resend back the old forms with corrected signature?

you really want to run that risk when you can simply copy the information and resubmit? shortcuts are the very worst way to approach immigration. IMO

the issue is that the original application is like 600 pages...and they have that scanned number thing on every page...I have looked up other places on the internet many say it's okay to resubmit the same old docs...it's going to take me a day to reprint since original one was from the independent law agency

I wasn't referring to the entire package, i was referring to the form you asked about, that form is 10 pages, your corresponding documents should be fine and can be resubmitted.

In that case that’s okay then; USCIS had scanned numbers at the bottom of every page of the entire application...guess I’ll just resubmit that

Yes something similar had happened to me, one of my form was outdated and they returned my entire package, i corrected the form and resubmitted the same supporting documents, all of them had the scan at the bottom of the page, make sure to put the yellow paper on the front that came with it.

Good look and i hope your process is a speedy hassle free one.

Hi yinander - Same issue happened to me. I have missed signing in applicant signature box for my kid and it is rejected. Just curious, did they accept updating same application form with their scan number? Or you needed to file with new application form?
Also all supportive documents are returned with stapled together. Did you send back same set of supportive document as stabled?
Really appreciate your response on this

I just corrected the old one and send it the same back to them it works fine But I unstapled everything as that is better.

Thanks yinander - for prompt response. Did you send back same set of supportive documents, returned back by USCIS or printed new copies? The receipt notice also need to add?
If you please share.

No I just sent back same documents returned by USCIS instead of printing new ones.

One more thing to add, as for the stapled documents, Don't unstapled them, they stapled them in that order as part of their normal process, that process just got interrupted by the unsigned form you submitted. I was just amend the form in question and return the package as is, thats what i did last year, worked out fine.

Hi!
My question is related to missing signatures in my children's I-485 application.

I have filed the I-485 for the kids together with me. Today I received the petition returned (only kids) due to a missing signature in their application (the whole document is stapled). I prepared the petition myself for the kids and thought that that would be enough to provide the signature in this section. However, USCIS returned the children's application package (mine was accepted though) due to missing the applicant's signature. Since they are under 14, I (legal guardian) had to sign on behalf of them.

My question is:
1. Can I send the same application providing the signature? or do I need to make a new application? I see that USCIS also had a barcode and marked the I-485 application on some pages.
2. As the filing fee depends (it is less) if the kids are filed together (at least with one legal guardian) or filed separately. Now, if this application is filed again due to incomplete submission, does this mean the filing fee changes considering it was filed separately?
3. USCIS has provided the receipt number for this case. Do you have any experience(s) if the receipt number changes or remains the same (for checking the case online)?
Many thanks in advance and good day

1. You can send same application

2. You will pay same filing fee as though you were filing together.

3. The receipt number will change.

NB: My responses were based on my experience, as I was in the same shoe as you few months ago
