yave20b Posted April 30, 2005 Report Share Posted April 30, 2005 I'm a little confused. Soon I will apply for AOS. We got the SSN with no problem. And on her I-94 is says "employment authorized" because somewhere along the line before the interview in Guangzhou I checked some box telling them she might want to work. So when I apply for the AOS do I also have to apply for EAD form I-765? Link to comment
tonado Posted April 30, 2005 Report Share Posted April 30, 2005 Yes, you have apply for EAD form I-765. I-94 is only good for 90 days. http://candleforlove.com/forums/index....ef057be83c63cf0 Link to comment

Jim - Portland, USA Posted May 2, 2005 Report Share Posted May 2, 2005 So when I apply for the AOS do I also have to apply for EAD form I-765?No, you do not have to apply for EAD. You can if you want to - it's elective depending on whether or not she wants to work, but not a requirement in terms of basic AOS. Link to comment
Martytb Posted May 3, 2005 Report Share Posted May 3, 2005 While we're on this subject ................................I am sending my step daughter's I-765 (Employment Authorization) in, but when I copied her I-94 there was no A#. Only her mother's name. Does she use her mother's A#? I assume I do. Link to comment

I just filed the I-130 for my new son and he got his own A# on the NOA1 from the I-130, also if you send in the I-765 without doing an adjustment of status at the same time it is about a year for the EAD Link to comment
Trigg Posted May 3, 2005 Report Share Posted May 3, 2005 for K1 you MUST file the I-485 either before or at the same time you file for the EAD. They will not allow you to file EAD before you file I-485!!!! Link to comment

Doesn't he also have to file a I-130 his daughter along with everything else? Then he would have a A# number for his daughter. Link to comment

Martytb Posted May 4, 2005 Report Share Posted May 4, 2005 My stepdaughter is K-4. She interviewed with her mom (well actually she just stood there and mom did all the answering).The I-130 for my stepdaughter was sent with her to the consulate for the interview. I will have to provide another one when I do the AOS. EAD only asks for copies of her passport & visa. The white card stapled to the passport would have the A# on the back side. That was the case for mom.Daughter only had her mother's name.I only did the EAD this time, instead of both EAD and AOS because I was hoping it would be faster getting the interview. When sending only the EAD it goes to the local office. If I do both it goes to Chicago.Her mom has an appointment at the end of the month for EAD (No appointments available for AOS, "call later") and I was hoping to get both interviewed at one visit. (fat chance, huh?)I guess I'll know one way or the other if I did it right in a few weeks.Personally, I am not in any hurry to get a driver's license for the wife or the daughter. They are, and that's why I'm going for the EAD. I just can't see my 4'10" wife behind the wheel of a car (she can't even ride a bike!!! )I do understand their need to be mobile. I just wish this area had a better masstransit system. Link to comment
