We sent in our AOS packet this morning and realized that they posted an updated I-765 today but we obviously sent in the old one as it was so early in the day.

 

Will our packet get rejected now?

 

I'm so upset. I spent so much work preparing everything just to realize that it will probably get rejected.

Was your I-485 accepted? What matters is that I-485 is filed before 10/02/20 and full I-485 fee is paid. If that is done, I-765 and/or I-131 can still be filed later without fee. Renewals and replacem

In several places on the USCIS website you will see this sentence: "If you send your application or petition by commercial courier (for example, UPS, FedEx, or DHL), we will use the date on the courie

Usually there is some leeway time for such changes.  If they are going by postmarks, you should be fine in any case.

I thought you would have to have it sent in by the 24th for the old form to be accepted? I guess I'll just have to wait and see.

If the updated form takes effect on 8/25, I believe any previous form versions postmarked by this date should be okay.

The new 765 was posted in the USCIS early this month. Be aware that even though it's Postmarked on the 24, they still might reject it. It happened with the I-944 back in February when people got rejected even though their packages were postmarked a day or two before it went in effect.

Well that is a bummer. I hope I get the package back before Oct 2nd then so I don't have to pay the new fees.

I would say that only your 765 would be rejected, not the whole package.

God I hope so. Apparently it can take up to 30 days to even get it back so if onle the 765 gets rejected, at least I don't have to start my entire application over.

I did also call USCIS today and they just said that it's up to the service center whether they'll still accept it or not since it was on the same day so we'll just have to wait and see. But I will not get my hopes up and just assume that it will get rejected.

Do you know if I would have to get a new sealed envelope for the medical exam or just resubmit the one I sent in if they reject it?
