HELP PLZZZZZ

This is why using lawyers for immigration is obsolete, unless there's not a DIY case. They will take your money and will ruin your application. Next time you will know and will file it by yourself.

You can't fix it.  The lawyer can't fix it.  You can file the I-824 and pay the fee.

The lawyer knows what to do.  The notice explains what to do.  

It’s in the second section under “what the official notice said”.

 

The petitioner (and the lawyer) have to file the request to transfer the case to the NVC.

Lesson learned the hard way , the sad part is I was refusing to assign someone and my husband was insisting, I’m compliance and legal person , I like to do everything by my self and I’m soooo detailed but I didn’t know much about the US process , lesson learned the hard way , now are trying to fix it , it’s emotionally hurting me , I have nothing to do than just just wait

The USC is also responsible for this mistake. Obviously he/she didn't read what they were signing, you can't just blame the lawyer.

I’m just in shock that I can’t even think right , and when looking online I can’t find someone did the same mistake , we send the form I-824,and hoping we get respond and try to fix it with minimum time

You said it's your husband... Are you a male too?

7821 people so far in Quarter 1 - Quarter 3 of 2019 had to file I-824

Also a search of I-824 on this forum brings up other examples.

lawyers never give refunds especially when you had to sign the application in the beginning 

 

but this one needs to be reported to the bar

The instructions to fix it are in the form.  The original form is approved as submitted.  
Now you have to file I-824, pay the fee, and USCIS will transfer the case to NVC for processing the visa.

The good news is that Riyadh IV is very good to work with so when they get the approved application your case can move quickly.

We filed a i 130 form , ( with lawyer ) he mistakly added that I’m in the US and I want adjustment of status ( and my case was APPROVED, we got the approval form saying I’m adjusting status  instead of going to the NVC  ( I’m not asking for adjustment I’m out of the US it should go to NVC .

 

HOWWW. Can we fix this and how long it will take to fix it ? 

Are you sure that you’re lawyer made this mistake on your petition? Here is why I’m asking, when our 130 was approved (husband is overseas, I’m petitioner) we also received our approval letter stating the same exact thing you’ve written above. I freaked out at first since it said it was for AOS. I called uscis immediately and let them know and they (USCIS) basically made a mistake when they mailed us the form, they used a “master” approval form and forgot to change all the info to include that it would be forwarded to NVC. 2 weeks later I received corrected approval letter and it made it nice and safe to NVC. Call USCIS. Mistakes happen.

I know this forum is big on dyi but did the spouse get to review and sign the form? That’s what I’m questioning. If the lawyer submitted it without review that’s malpractice for sure.

Yes the form it self is correct I was reviewing it , but in the section that say where the interview should be , he mistakenly put that the interview will be in the USA Los Angeles, instead of putting in Saudi Arabia, I’m not sure if the same situation, we called them and we filed typo correction form as well , and we filed I-824, plz let me know if that what happen to you

That’s the part of mistake he did in the form , he filled the wrong place with wrong information.
