I just realized after doing a lot of reading on this site that we made a few mistakes on the I-485, one more importantly that I think will cause the 485 to be denied if it isn't corrected. What do I need to do to fix this? We just mailed it in and haven't even receive a receipt yet but I don't want them to deny it before we have a chance to fix the form.

Not much you can do. What are the mistakes?

K1 denied, K3/K4, CR-1/CR-2, AOS, ROC, Adoption, US citizenship and dual citizenship

!! ALL PAU!

However, if you have incorrect information that can be misconstrued as "fraudulent", you wont get an RFE for that. An RFE is a request for further evidence- to give you a chance to submit missing evidence.So, it depends on what exactly the OP considers a mistake. If the OP is worried that this may be the case, wait for an RFE and submit the missing evidence.

I called today and they told me that once I get the receipts that I can call in and make whatever changes I need too to our applications. I hope they don't take this as us trying to be fraudulent.

The earlier the better. If you want to amend the biographic information, do it before USCIS send the case for all those background checks.
