Hi, today I received my packet back with a notice that it has been rejected.
The text reads:
I'm not entirely sure what they mean by "your priority date could not be established" but on the I-485 Section 2 Question 4 it asks: "Priority Date from Underlying Petition (if any)". I left this question blank. Should I populate it with the NOA1 or NOA2 date of the original K1 application? I did enter the receipt number in the question prior to that when asked, but I wasn't sure what Priority date meant.
For the 'The following documents may be provided" that they list, they seem to talk of forms that don't relate to a K1 applicant.
As for resubmitting, can I mail the package back to them as they have sent it? They have a big staple through everything related to the I-485, and then the EAD documents stapled seperately. They also stamped the check but I'm not sure if I need to send a new payment or not?
They added a green paper rejection notice that says if I resubmit, to put the green paper on top of the package.
