Next Action? I797 received

Two Questions

1) I am trying to verify whether any next action is required, my spouses I 485 was approved 10/15/07. She has received her green card (I-797). Based upon my check with the USCIS recording this the last information, and no other action is required until the renewal of her green card in (approximately) 2012. At the I485 interview, however, I thought I recalled there was some requirement for action on her part at or around the two year mark after approval. Does anyone have idea if anything is required?

2) Just checking to make sure that the green card replaces the EAC which was only valid for one year. My understanding was that the EAC was an interim right to work and the permanent green card replaced the EAC.

Thanks in advance for anyone's input.

1. Depends on the length of time the green card was vaild for (2 year/10 years).

2. Greencard replaces ead/ap.

My Advice is usually based on "Worst Case Scenario" and what is written in the rules/laws/instructions. That is the way I roll... -Protect your Status - file before your I-94 expires.

WARNING: Phrases in this post may sound meaner than they were intended to be. Read the Adjudicator's Field Manual from USCIS

1. If it is conditional GC (2-years expiration date), then check I-751 form to remove condition on permanent residency. Otherwise, you should have 10-years GC.

2. After GC, you do not need EAD card.

Just for info:

EAD = Employment Authorization Document

EAC =Eastern Adjudication Center

Thank you for your reply and information. It's interesting that I dont have any notes about anything action I need to take, but I distinctly remember a 2 year anniversary. Might schedule an appointment just to check.

Again, thank you
