organization of AOS papers

[Chamy and Gatita 3]

Hey,

I'm finalizing the AOS/EAD/AP paperwork TODAY! yippeeeeeeee --- and have a quick question about how to actually organize it.

Somewhere it said to 2 hole punch the top and use the metal binder clip for the K-1 paperwork. Do you do the same for the AOS/EAD/AP?

Also, the I-693 came back from Dr. Arnold's office in a sealed envelope. Do I include it just like that?

Any other tips appreciated. THANKS!!!

Do not put any holes or staples on the application...When I sent mine I grouped each application with it's supporting documents and simply paperclipped them together...and yes send in the sealed envelope you received from the Dr. just like that...best wishes

I included a cover of letter for my AOS/EAD/AP applications. I din't punch anything. I used papers clips to attach all of my supporting documents. Regarding your I-693, just include it like other supporting documents (may be put it somewhere in the middle of AOS and I-864.

Congrats, kiddo, si man!

Treat each as totally separate applications, all of which happen to go into the same mailing-envelope. I binder-clipped my AOS stuff (incl. the sealed letter from Dr. Arnold) together, and then separately clipped my EAD together, then separately clipped my AP stuff together. Do include the one cover-letter to USCIS regarding what you're sending, si man.

Because the wife's I-94 was expiring soon, I photocopied the AOS cover-letter + my $1,010 check and had her carry that around. Now that we have the NOA1 for the AOS, I'll have her trash the foregoing photocopy in favor of a copy of the NOA1. Can't be too careful, no man!

thanks everyone!

heeyyyyyy, Tbone! i like the binder clip idea, and what an efficient way to get the word out on the Guayaquil consulate! you little sneak! i love it.

ok, a few more-- ( but i don't promise it's the last!)

--translation of birth certificate: i translated it and wrote my own certification doc to go with it. does it need to be notarized?

--on I-765, Application for Employment Authorization, line 1, "which USCIS office?" and under that "results (granted or denied-attach all documentation)" what do i put there?

--same, line 15. current immigration status ---

That's a continuation of question #11 in the first column. If you haven't applied for work authorization before, those are left blank.
