Today I received the entire petition along with money order back from the USCIS in the mail. They received the petition on September 13th. This was my first NOA1 and in the Type it states Rejected. I am filing for a K-1 visa for my fiance in Ghana. 

 

The reasons for rejection states two causes: wrong filing fee amount and outdated 129f form.

 

Has anyone else who filed in the last week experienced this? I was working with an immigration lawyer to compile the petition whom I trust (he has successfully helped a friend of mine and I was referred through them). Both the lawyer and I can not find any information that states the 129 form has recently been updated or that the fee has changed from $535. 

 

Any other people who have experienced similar notices or have learned of any changes in the K-1 visa form or fees would be greatly appreciated. I do not want to resubmit before knowing what exactly was wrong and I can't find anywhere else that lists a different filing fee than $535.

 

Thank you all in advance for your help.

That fee amount is correct. What was the edition of the form you sent? This edition is in the lower left corner of the I-129F petition.
