I did take them .however IO did not ask for it..... again it depends ...Paystubs are one of easiest piece of document you can get, so when in doubt just carry it, you would not loose anything by carrying it :)

1. In this particular case, I highly recommend you wait for the rejected package before resubmitting a new one. The rejected package should come with a cover sheet which you’ll need to place on the package when sending it back, that cover sheet is very important in this case as it enables the Chicago Lockbox to reconnect your kid’s application with you and your wife’s and continue processing together. Plus, if your child is over 14, and you try to resubmit without that cover sheet, there’s possibility of another rejection as the filing fee could be deemed incomplete (remember kids under 14 do not pay the full processing fee) - a minor is required to send in the full $1225 filing fee if the application is not filed with that of at least one parent.
2. No need to do that or send in a full set of new forms. Send in the exact package (which will likely be clipped and may have some annotations on them) they send to you.

Hi Mom,
We got our notice of actions and kid's rejection in one week. We resubmitted the package as you say.. Thanks for the help you provided for all of us

1. Did you include a SASE with your payment?
2. How long have you been waiting for the receipt?
3. Is it outside the average wait time reported by others?

I did include SASE with the payment.
As I count it has been 29 days and the average wait time as i see on the spreadsheet is 30 days.
I will wait until monday just wondering where I could contact to follow up regarding it.
Also, i would like to ask if I could go ahead and send aos package without dv receipt?
Thank you for your time. I appreciate it.

There are at least 3 people here that I know of, who did not include the receipt and whose packages were accepted. Go over the spreadsheet to get a sense of the risk of doing so.

You can email KCC but it’s currently taking them at least 3 to 4 weeks to respond emails.

1. Email KCC.
2. See the FAQ section of the AOS process spreadsheet
 
hello @Sm1smom , I have made a similar post in passport issues because I thought it's the right place for this but I'm not sure now because it impacts my i485 as well.
So, the issue is that me and my wife drove to Canada on 08/31/2019 and came back on the same day, we didn't get stamps from the US officers, but we did get one from Canadians. Also, my wife's i94 shows the most recent date of entry as 07/19/2019 which is the date we arrived in the USA for the first time. I emailed CBP officers and we have a conversation now, but their initial response was that they cannot change the i94 and that I haven't paid some sort of i94 fee when we drove back from Canada most probably.

Having this, should I put on her i485 the most recent date of entry field the one which is on i94 (07/19/2019)? because the actual recent date of entry is 08/31/2019. Maybe I should make some annotation or something and explain this in the additional information?

Put the date that you know is accurate.
 
Dear friends!
It has been a 30 days since I received my receipt notice of action in mail. According to the spreadsheet it should take about 14-20 days for Bio letter to come in mail after first NOA mail.
Do you think it is about time to call them to see if they can assign a Bio appointment?

This is not true, people have waited even 2-3 months before getting their bio letters. Unless you are referring to a specific ASC.

Also, could you add your info in the spreadsheet? It would be helpful for others. Thanks

You know what your most recent date is, that is what you should list on theI-485.
Is the most recent entry date listed under the travel history date on the CBP’s I-94 website? If the most recent date is not listed, I suggest you visit your nearest CBP Deferred Inspection site and get this sorted out in person (not via email).
