Send it back with a copy of the NOA1 for the i485 

Yesterday we phoned USCIS and found out that the reason for not accepting our I-131 form was because I didn’t sign it there.

I signed in the graph "Signature of Preparer". And I had to sign in the graph "Signature of Applicant".

How can I reapply I-131 now? Sign up on the old form in the graph "Signature of Applicant" and send again with my I-797 to accept the I-485 form? Or re-fill the I-131 form?

Thank you so much!

I wouldn't worry too much, out of all the forms, i-131 is probably the least relevant one. And, there is pretty good chance in your case Green Card will get approved before either EAD/AP, which would make the whole issue moot, since once GC is approved, the other 2 become not relevant.  Which category you selected on I-131? 1.d I believe is the right choice.

Yes, I selected 1.d.  Thanks for your support!

Did you send all 4 forms together in the same package, or did you separate them? It is strange that they would return I-131 to you of all things. Was I-765 accepted? Did you use (c)(9) category for I-765?

Yes, I sent all 4 forms together in the same package. And form I-765 was accepted. And yes, I used (c)(9) category for I-765.

This is very strange .  I am very worried.

I have not received NOA1 yet. I received only SMS on my phone about receiving I-485

I sent my form I-485 with forms I-131 Application for Travel Document and I-765 Application for Employment Authorization. I payment $1,225.00 for I-485 and bio-metrics, because on USCIS site it says:

"You do not need to pay an additional fee for Form I-131 if:

• You are filing Form I-131 Application Type B or D;
• You filed a Form I-485 with a fee on/after July 30, 2007; and
• Your Form I-485 is still pending."

But today I received  in the mail form I-797C for my I-131: 

"This is in reference to the I-131, you submitted. Your i-131, fees, and any supporting documentation is being returned to you for the following reason:
The payment amount is incorrect, or has not been provided. Please review the Form Instructions for fee information. Please resubmit the application/petition package with the appropriate fees..."

What did I do wrong and what shall I do next?

Thank so much!

Welcome to the forum.

 

Before you send in your AOS packet, you may want to acquaint yourself with the VJ K1/K3 AOS guide, and a couple of other useful VJ  and USCIS guides. So that you are sure to include the correct forms and information and not include applications like to I-130 mentioned in your question, and hopefully reduce the chance of any problems from USCIS.

Good luck on your immigration journey.

 

Thanks very much!

p-ana, Thank you so much!

I need help with this issue.  I’m on K-1 visa, we got married and I-94 form ended shortly after. We are in the process of preparing documents for a Green Card, work permit and Advance Parole Document.

Do we need to submit an I-130 form with an I-485 form and a package of documents and pay an additional $ 535 for it?

Thank all so much!

I need help with this issue.  I’m on K-1 visa, we got married and I-94 form ended shortly after. We are in the process of preparing documents for a Green Card, work permit and Advance Parole Document. In the meantime we decided to get SSN.

When I visited the SSN office, the clerk took my SSN form, but told me that since I have expired I-94, they need either a new I-94 form or an A-Number. It looks like I was assigned an A-number when I got K1 approval,  but it’s only a stamp on my original I-129F form. The clerk mentioned that they need only the original documents and sent me to the nearest USCIS office to get a proof that I am in good immigration status.

Has someone faced a similar situation, what exactly can I request from USCIS?
