I-131 AP question

[IllinoisDave]

In checking my lists for AOS/EAD/AP one last time, I re-read the instructions one more time to be sure and came across this under the initial evidence requirements for the I-131:

 

"If you are an applicant for adjustment of status,a copy of the USCIS or former INS receipt as evidence that you filed the adjustment application."

 

I assumed on first reading that this is the I-797C NOA2. But as I think about it, that doesn't seem like evidence of filing the adjustment application. If not this, what other receipt would I be using since I haven't filed the I-485 yet?

 

Sorry if the answer is obvious but the wording seems a little ambiguous.

If you were filing for just advanced parole, you would need to prove that you had also previously filed for AOS. Since you are applying for AP concurrently with AOS, that evidence is not necessary.

You would either include the I-797 NOA1, or file the I-131 together with the I-485 AOS.

Thanks Mike and Randy.
