Don't fit into any cetegory for i-765 Direct FilingAaddress

[Promezclan]

I am filing with a pending Adjustment of State application which is family-based. The Direct Filing Address category for this says:

Pending family-based Form I-485, Application to Register Permanent Resident or Adjust Status and: You filed your application with the USCIS Chicago Lockbox, AND your receipt number begins with “MSC”

While I did file with the Chicago lockbox, my receipt number begins with IOE. I assume I just ignore this and file anyway, since it's the closest fit?

Is that your Receipt Number for your I-485? Or is that for your I-130? It seems that numbers beginning with "IOE" are for online filings, and as far as I know, I-485 has never been accepted online.

Well, yeah, that's the funny thing. First I filed a paper I-130, then around 8 months later a paper I-485. I have never filed anything online. The receipt numbers for the 130 and the 485 are different, but both begin with IOE.
