My wife and I used a website to help with our visa process. Things went great until our I-485 was denied in August of 2021 because our co-sponsor didn't meet the financial requirement. At that time our contract with the website ended so we found an attorney. I was working with them and thought we had re-submitted an I-485 with a new affidavit of support, but it turns out another I-485 was never submitted and there was never an appeal (I-290B) completed either, so I'm not sure if it's too late to re-open that I-485 with a new affidavit of support.
Three weeks ago we got an I-797 approval, and in that approval it told us to submit an I-485 with the approval letter. I thought we had already done that last year, but then a week ago I got a letter stating that our I-765 was denied because the I-485 was denied in August. We've completed the relationship interview, biometrics, and had her medical screening completed.
At this point, I'm not sure if I should submit a new I-485 entirely, or if I should submit an I-290B to reconsider the original I-485 we submitted with the new affidavit of support?
Or if I can submit a new I-485 with the I-797 approval and with the new affidavit of support and avoid submitting the I-290B entirely?
Any help is greatly appreciated, thank you
