Anca, as other VJers have been telling you, you should have checked box a) on both I-130 and I-485 -- you are eligible to adjust status on the basis of a petition that, if approved, will make an immigrant visa number immediately available to you. What I suggest you do is check the correct box and re-send your application (I-485 and I-130 will all supporting documents in the same package).

Also, I think it would be easier for everyone to follow your story if you don't keep opening new posts -- please keep your questions to one single thread, and people will be better able to help you.

Good luck! Don't hesitate to PM me if you have further questions (in Romanian). :D

It sounds improbable that the USCIS would reject an application just cause you checked the incorrect box on the form. From what I've read they usually correct common mistakes.

There is some kind of a two-year residency requirement for a J-1 visa. To apply for AOS you need to get a waiver for that, do you have that already?

Vinay,

Maybe, if they know with certainty that a mistake has been made, which they may not know.

But not always.

2 year rule does not apply in my case

I change the checkbox(from d to a) and I going to send the papers again

hopefully this time is going to be fine

I was thinking, since I got a Rejection Notice and they send the checks back, should I write new checks?

What a pain huh? When we filled out our forms, on the I-485 form, on Part 2 Application type, we checked J: Other basis of eligibility and explained that it is based on marriage to a US citizen (since he did not have an A # yet) and our journey went smoothly, did not get any rejection letter because we checked the wrong box....

Good luck to you and your spouse!!!

anca,

Did the USCIS also return the I-130 petition?

Suspecting that they did not, don't forget to include a copy of the I-130 Receipt Notice with the I-485 or you may find it being returned again.

wellsdr,

That would be h, not j ? That error in posting aside, it was clear in your situation that you should have checked c, not h, and so the USCIS could confidently correct your error. It was not so clear in anca's situation, in her case it simply appeared that she had applied for adjustment with no basis for the application.

Well first my I-130 was rejected because I sent I-130 and I-485 in different envelopes

then my I-485 was rejected because the part 2 because it was "invalid"

but I did the same as Wellsdr did:check the box h and explain that I'm applying for AOS based on marriage.

everybody tells me that I should check a)

:wacko:

I'm going to send the papers again on saturday and hopefully I don't receive another rejection notice,if I do I'm going to be very upsad :(

Racism??? Come on. You have got to be kidding me!

Yes, it makes it a little difficult to follow when the language changes, and I can understand someone making that point. But calling them racist? Get a life.......

If at first you don't succeed, then sky diving is not for you.

Someone stole my dictionary. Now I am at a loss for words.

If Apple made a car, would it have windows?

Ban shredded cheese. Make America Grate Again .

Give a man a fish and he will eat for a day.  Deport him and you never have to feed him again.

I started out with nothing, and I still have most of it.

I went bald but I kept my comb.  I just couldn't part with it.

My name is not Richard Edward but my friends still call me DickEd

If your pet has a bladder infection, urine trouble.

"Watch out where the huskies go, and don't you eat that yellow snow."

I fired myself from cleaning the house. I didn't like my attitude and I got caught drinking on the job.

My kid has A.D.D... and a couple of F's

Carrots improve your vision.  Alcohol doubles it.

A dung beetle walks into a bar and asks " Is this stool taken?"

Breaking news.  They're not making yardsticks any longer.

Hemorrhoids?  Shouldn't they be called Assteroids?

If life gives you melons, you might be dyslexic.

If you suck at playing the trumpet, that may be why.

Dogs can't take MRI's but Cat scan.

The way to find out if you love someone or not, is by talking to them.

The more you talk to them the more you either hate them or love them.
