Filing the I-765 Employment Autorization

[ghunt2121 1]

One of the first things on the I-765 for is a question that says "Which USCIS Office?"

What are they asking for here? The one you intend to send the AOS package to (which would be the Chicago office according to the VisaJourney K1 Step-by-Step page: http://www.visajourney.com/content/k1k3aos)? Or are they asking for my closest local USCIS office (which is where they might have to go for instance to pick up an approved EAD or Interim EAD)?

Once again I find the instructions that USCIS provides for these form insufficient. They need to have a set of instructions that says, blank-by-blank, what they expect in each blank.

If you read it carefully, you wouldn't ask this question. You only answer this question when you answer "YES" to previous question 11. If your answer is "YES" then it will be the office where you applied your previous EAD card. Well I don't know if the instruction is well-informed or not, but I know millions of people have used it so far so it must be something.

Btw, when applying based on ( c )( 9 ) category, it needs to be sent to Chicago Lockbox.

Good luck.

aww, see what you mean now

Yes I see what you mean now as well... it's because the form is built to be filled out top-to-bottom-of-left-column and then top-to-bottom-of-right-column, which is also non-intuitive. People are used to reading left to right across a page and then moving sown the page.

I still think it obvious that these form (and instruction) designers have worked for the government only and never in the private sector! If they had, the quality of their 'product' would be visibly higher.

Yes I'm critical and complaining about their quality. But if I have to pay thousands of dollars to have the family I love here with me (and able to work and fully participate) I expect better of my own government.

Please read the forms and instructions slowly, highlight what you don't understand, then post it here everyone here is willing to help. Good luck.
