AOS I-485 case denial letter came, need to file a motion to reopen or reconsider soon
however the denial reason (priority date not current) shown by USCIS can't be possible as the paperwork was filled on time and with attorney supervision.
The case had 3 interviews, the first two didn't mention anything wrong with the total application
the third one sent a denial letter, and we are pretty sure the USCIS made a mistake

what to do now?
 
Timeline: Parent petitioned I-130 for Under 21 son in F2A category on Nov 2010,
child aged out and moved to F2B and maintained F1 non immigrant student status
Feb 2016 Visa bulleting asked to file AOS for F2b priority dates prior to Dec 2010
AOS filed on Feb 2016, with request to maintain F2B status
3 interview happened, first two wen well and applicant asked to stay put until priority date become current
3rd interview happened in April 2017, and the AOS was denied for submitting case before priority date not current

definitely a USCIS mistake, but it is costly to file a $600 motion to reconsider, what else we can do?
 
It does seem like a mistake (assuming they were not born in Mexico or the Philippines). You can try to go in to an InfoPass appointment and ask that they make a service request. Unfortunately there is no timeline on when you will hear back from that, and while you wait you may miss the 30-day window to file a Motion to Reconsider, so it's a risk.

Opened a service request, but also planning to file a Motion to Reconsider. will this work?
 
Update on this case, the service request is still in queue for a response
Infopass meeting didn't help either, the supervisor indirectly accepted that a mistake has been made but USCIS won't fix their own mistake until a I-290B is submitted.
