Applying for AOS how many Photos do I Need?

Hi,

I got married to my now wife last week and I'm putting the final pieces of the paperwork together to send to the Chicago lockbox place.

However, i'm a little confused:

How many Photos do I need? I'm applying for AOS & EAD at the same time. Do I still only need 2 or do I now need 4?

You need exactly how many it asks for on the I-485 and the I-765 individually. Treat the forms as if they're seperate and not filed together. If one form asks for 2 photos and another asks for 2 photos, send 4 photos.

Don't forget that they want different kind of pix! 2 pix in normal passport manner and another 2 pix which show your face only 3/4. Dunno why, but they want it that way. Had to argue with the Duane Reed lady to get it done that way!!!!

I sent in 4. But all 4 are the same. Guess I'll wait for a RFE on this one. Why are they two different poses ????

Untrue. All photos are now required to be the face on versions. The 3/4 pose is no longer used by USCIS.

then you argued incorrectly! The requirements are for full front face. All apps require the same.

Nah, you're fine. The form asking for 3/4 pose is out of date, there's a memo on the USCIS website stating that all photos should be in the new format. I sent in 4 indentical photos in the new format, and as you can see from my timeline below, no RFEs.

Oh! And I had to argue with the lady in the drugstore for 10 minutes. Ha at least it's not my bad, hubbie said so hihihi. *sigh* That might be our RFE???!!!!

Good Job i got all 4 of mine done exactly the same!

I had to go to 2 different Drug stores cuz the first one didn't do them. Then i went in search of a non-exsistant Kinko's so i could print my Cover Letter, turned back and went in search of some where i can print. Finally found one near a Wal-Mart it cost me $2 something to print 2 pages off! O well!

I then went and stood inline at the post office and sent my AOS and EAD to Chicago via registered mail!

I hope it goes well!

Cheers for the help.

Oh well indeed, given that the cover letter is completely unnecessary.
