Charged ~$500 for I-131 Advanced Parole application?? Was the fee not included with my AoS payment??

[peanutismint 37]

I submitted my AoS packet with the $1225 fee a month ago and just received NoA for both the Adjustment Of Status form itself and for my EAD work permit, but then today I received my I-131 Advance Parole application back with a letter saying it was rejected because I didn't include any fee....?? As far as I'd read/learned, I thought that, like the EAD, the fee for the AP was included/waived with my overall $1225 AoS fee?

Send it back with a copy of your i797c from the i485

Ok, thanks, so it was probably just a clerical error on their part that they didn't see I had applied/paid for the i485? Sucks if it's further postponed my AP..... Do you think I should write a little cover letter explaining that there's no further fee to be paid because I'm applying for AoS?

You can add a cover if you wish.
