Just got my all package back today.

They rejected it because I don't have the NOA for my I 130. I never received it and they told me before to send a print out of my case and a receciept number.

Now they are telling me to fill out I 824 and pay 405$ fee.

I don't have the money...

What can I do ?

1) Pay the fee.

2) Borrow the money to pay the fee.

3) Wait for the I-130 to be approved and then file the I-485.
