This status means USCIS mistakenly accepted your application when it shouldn’t have. They will send you a notice explaining the reasons, return your package, and refund the fees you paid. To avoid future issues, carefully review the requirements and fix any errors before resubmitting. For example, your priority date might not have been current at the time of filing, meaning an immigrant visa number wasn’t available.
Official USCIS wording
On September 8, 2025, we mailed you a Notice indicating that we rejected and refunded your Form I-485, Application to Adjust Status or Register Permanent Residence because your priority date was not current on the date of filing, and thus, an immigrant visa number was not available. An immigrant visa number must be immediately available at the time of filing, to properly file Form I-485. Once your priority date is current and a visa number is available, you may file a new Form I-485 if you are otherwise eligible. For more information on visa availability and priority dates, please go to Visa Availability and Priority Dates. Please go to www.uscis.gov/addresschange for instructions if you need to change your address.
