Yet another "Class of Admission" Question

Hi all, my uncle, his wife, and their daughter came over to the US last month via the I-485 petition. I am now filling out a I-131 for my aunt and her daughter. What do I put in the box that says "class of admission"? I've been unsuccessful in finding the answer on the forums. Thanks!
 
What visa did they use to enter the US? Im not sure what you mean when you say they entered using the I-485 petition.

To give you an example, if a person enters the US on a H1-B visa, the class of admission is H1-B.
 
Well, on their US Visa it says:
"Upon endorsement, serves as temporary I-551 evidencing permanent recidence for one year."All I know that is they entered as permanent residents and I can't find any "class of admission" code for that.

If they have have the GC, they don't need AP....I-131 is for those with pending I-485.

We're not applying for AP, we're applying for re-entry permit, which allows them to stay abroad for over a year and still retain permanent resident status.

Do you see any code next to the I-551 stamp? It would be some code like IR-1, CR-1. This code depends on what basis their I-485 petition was filed.
For eg.
IR-1 is for spouse who got PR via consular processing
IR-6 is for spouse who got PR via AOS
CR-1 is for spouse who got conditional PR via CP
CR-6 is for spouse who got conditional PR via AOS

To be more specific, look at the I-551 stamp and see whats written next to "COA". That would be your class of admission.
