NVC Termination Letter

[don2017 4]

My wife received this letter from the NVC today.

 

She had her Green Card approved in 2020 and has just submitted her n-400 for naturalization. She had her AOS done in New York.

 

What do we need to do next? Will this affect her N-400 application?

 

Thanks for any advise.

This letter is notification that a visa number is available.

1. No, I do not want to pursue my immigrant visa application because I have adjusted status. (Please attach a copy of both sides of your alien registration card.)
2. No, I do not want to pursue my immigrant visa application because I have received an immigrant visa through another petition and am now a permanent resident. (Please attach a copy of both sides of your alien registration card.)
3. No, I do not want to pursue my immigrant visa application because I am no longer interested in immigrating to the United States
4. No, I do not wish to pursue my immigrant visa for a different reason (please provide explanation).

What visa category did she use to enter the US.. 

On what basis did she adjust status ? 

Was there ever an 1 130 filed on

 her behalf when she was resident in her home country ? 
 

it looks like a glitch .. but

 let just be sure ..

She came in on a G-1 visa.

After I got my green card, I filed an I-130 and I-485 as she was already in the country.

These were approved and she received her green card.
