I - 485 Notice of Rejection ( I need Help so Badly)

[happy_01]

Hello! Im here again to share my journey to you guys. Im here again seeking for answer and help. I filed my I-485 (including I-765 / I- 131 and also for my son K-2 application for I-485) last nov 15, 2011. Now i just received a packet form USCIS and it says my application is rejected. I just wanna know what happened to my application. I followed the instructions carefully and i submitted all the forms and requirements that their been asking me to submit. Im now depressed because my I-94 will be expire soon. (December 30, 2011) I married my husband after 2 weeks when i arrived in the USA. The USCIS returned all the papers that i mailed to them. When i opened the packet i got this letter attached on my forms.

Notice Type: Rejection Notice
Case Type: I-485, Application to register permanent residence or adjust status.

Letter Message: This is in reference to the I- 485 Application to register permanent residence or adjust status, you submitted. Your I-485 fees and any supporting documentation is being returned to you for the following reason(s).

The check amount is incorrect, or has not beed provided. Please review the Form Instructions for the fee information. Please resubmit the application/petition package with the appropriate fees to the USCIS address listed on the bottom of this documentation.

I followed the instruction carefully and also the fees. It says when i file for I-485 the fee for I-765 and I-131 is waive and for my son I-485 is only 635$. My husband issued check amounting to 1,705 $ .

Im scared because my I-94 will be expire soon and im thinking maybe the US immigration will sent me back in the philippines. I have 7 month old baby and he's a US citizen already. We cant afford to hire a lawyer coz we dont have enough money for the lawyer. Im getting depressed coz i cant help my husband financially coz i cant work right now. Ever since I said yes to my husband when he proposed to marry me IMMIHELP help me alot with my decision and journey to US. Now im asking maybe some here can help me to my problem. I need advice and help. What can i do now? What are the step for filling the I - 485 and what are forms included to my application? I hoping for the best ! Thanks and God bless everyone.

The filing fee is PER APPLICATION.

Yours is 985 + 85 = 1070

Your son is 635

Each application goes with its own check. Even if you send them all together.

Neither of you do an I-130 because you are K visas.

Legally all you had to do was marry in 90 days. There is no law on the books that says you have to file for adjustment of status before 90 days. They aren't going to send you back because of this delay.

Also checks are sometimes rejected of they aren't made out to the correct payee. Check the instructions and put exactly what they say--no abbreviations like USCIS or DHS.

Same case

I have your same case, we got the fees wrong because i though my husband (US citizenship) needed biometrics too, so what should be the correct way to do it? TWO SEPARATE CHECKS?

ONE CHECK FOR I-485 Adjustment of Status:$1225 ( $1140: +$85)
SECOND CHECK I-130- Petition for Alien Relative : $535.

I will waiting for your answer

Thanks so much
