Hi everyone,

 

Would really appreciate your help with this. My AOS package (I-1485, I-130, I-765, I-131) was received by USCIS on 11/15. I just got my entire package rejected, with mistakes on almost each form.

 

Background: Petitioner is applying for AOS from F-1.

 

  • I-485
    • incorrect fee, this one is totally my fault, I failed to include the $85 for biometrics
  • I-130
    • incorrect fee -- not sure why, I included the G-1450 for $535, this is the fee listed on the USCIS website.
    • Did they list incorrect fee because the I-485 fee was incorrect as well?? really confused about this one
  • I-765
    • incorrect fee -- this ties into I-485's incorrect fee, so I get it
    • "Reason for Applying" was not completed
      • I certainly a checked a box, and it shows in the form they sent back
      • Part 1, Reason for Applying -- I selected 1.a. "Initial Permission to accept employment."
        • could this be that I checked the wrong box?
        • background, beneficiary had previous EADs but through a different status (he had OPT) so I read that since we're applying under a new status it would be intitial permission
          • eligibility category is C09
  • I-131
    • incorrect fee -- i get this
    • outdated form
      • filed using the 04/24/19 version, that's what's on the site
      • is there a newer form i should be using?

 

Really appreciate any feedback. We're a little stressed over all these errors we don't understand.

Since you are filling concurrently USCIS will not separate and keep the form with the correct fee only so the whole package gets rejected. 

You applied correctly on the I-765 as it is under a new basis.
