NoHi, I might sound silly. Can we file i-485 form online? Thank you!

Yes.Today I received a text from USCIS "your case was received. Receipt # ****". I assume this is an acceptance text?
Thank you!Yes.
The “full” question is asking about if you’ve ever applied for an immigrant visa at a US embassy or consulate abroad - answer NO if you’ve never done that.Hi @Sm1smom,
sorry, I tried to find answer in the thread but couldn't find anything related to my question.
Should I answer "yes" in I-485 on question "Have you ever applied for an immigrant visa..." if I submitted DS-260 with AOS option before?
Thank you!
Hi Rise_Above did you got your receipt after filing Aos ?Hi Sm1smom,
I decided to go with the money order option to pay the AOS fee. The money order requires the address for the U.S. department of homeland security. I live in Colorado and I will send the AOS package to the USCIS Phoenix Lockbox. Is the address on the money order the same address for the lockbox?

Thanks,
Was the payment cashed following the previous submission? Are you asking about resubmission following a rejection or a denial?In case of resubmission (I-485) do we have to pay full fee again?
I don’t quite understand what you mean about “what to say on the Applicant interview part”. However, I suggest you take a look at the “AOS Package” tab of the AOS Process Spreadsheet, there’s a link to a prefilled sample I-485 which can be used for reference on how to fill the form.Hi @Sm1smom
Thank you for the previous help I appreciate you so much and God bless you.
I was trying to fill this out and I was wondering what to say on the Applicant interview part ?
Do you we have an example of this
Thank you
Not necessary IMHO, you however can do that if you like.Thank you for answering my prior questions You are truly a savior!
I had another question; I saw the spreadsheet examples on how to organize the package for submission, but I was wondering if I need to also somehow mark the envelope with AOS through DV? Has anyone else done this or know if it is necessary/how to do it? I see a lot of lawyer websites online suggest this.
I still didn't get any reply. now almost 5 days. What is the mean of rejection and denial? Thank you.Was the payment cashed following the previous submission? Are you asking about resubmission following a rejection or a denial?
So BE PATIENT! 5 days is too short to be stressing about not getting any update following package delivery. Take a look at the “AOS FAQ” section of the AOS Process Spreadsheet for an explanation of the difference between a rejection and a denial.I still didn't get any reply. now almost 5 days. What is the mean of rejection and denial? Thank you.
Thank you so much for your response, that makes a lot of sense! I should add some more information as well. I already sent my application package to USCIS at the beginning of February (knowing my number would be current in March) and they rejected it unfortunately saying I should apply only when the number is current. So I am going to resubmit. My question is:
1. Do I use the documents they sent me back (my original submission, which they have added a scanned number at the bottom/some other hand written notes) or do I create a completely new packet from scratch and send that?
2. Whether I do the former or the latter above, with the rejection notice, I also received the attached letter that asks me to put this with the resubmission. Should I put this letter in?
3. Should I put in the resubmission the I-797C rejection notice + other rejection materials they sent to me (i.e. a letter explaining the rejection in detail?). Should this also be part of my cover letter explanation?
4. And finally, in my original packet I had I-134. Is it ok if I do not put it now with the new packet? Or should I put it provided they may have already scanned it?
Thank you again!
