So confused

[RebeccaS 7]

Ok if anyone has experienced this or knows what this means then please fill me in because it doesn't make sense to me right now.

My cousins case for his wife immigration is at the nvc. He paid the AOS bill and now he is in the process of getting his AOS package ready. This is understood, no problems there. But then he just recently today got a letter or 'USCIS case status notifier' that reads:

"On Oct. 16th 2014 we mailed you a denial decision notice for this case I130 petition..... The notice explains why the denial decision was made ....."

What denial decision are they talking about? His I-130 petition was approved and moved to the nvc. They are asking for his affidavit of support package. We don't understand why the uscis is involved again. This just all doesn't make sense. We would have called but we just got the notice today and we'll have to wait until monday to contact them. But we would love to know what this means and if they are mistaken or if this is something to really worry about. And what should we do?

Thanks for reading and for any help you can give us.

Hopefully it is just a mistake. Definitely the petitioner should call USCIS on Monday morning. In order to issue a denial notice, USCIS must first issue a "notice of intent to deny" so that the petitioner can rectify the situation before a denial is issued. If no one received a NOID prior to this current notice, I wouldn't worry, but I WOULD contact USCIS to make sure they correct this.

If a welcome packet was received from NVC, USCIS couldn't have denied the I-130.
