hmmm ok good to know. Yeah I'm planning to give them a call tomorrow. But If I have to go, I'm gonna go. It's only a 10 minute drive for me. I hate the parking there (ughhhh downtown parking :angry: )

Based on previous posts, I believe you have to go for the 2nd bio. Why? Because you didn't submit the I-765 and AP along with I-485. Also, if you look through your 1st biometrics app letter, it ONLY signifies for I-485. Correct me if I am wrong.

Can I send in my advance parole after I sent my AOS package just realised I forgot to add it also

Can I send in my advance parole after I sent my AOS package just realised I forgot to add it also

I won't wait....just expect another visit @ ASC for biometrics. ( I presume, no biggie) If you decide to apply, you must include a copy of your NOAs along with the required docs for EAD and AP.

I guess I have to wait a little longer for a US-issued ID. The Texas Department of Public Safety would not accept my documents today when i went to apply for an ID card, so I have to wait for my EAD (which will probably serve as ID by itself, nullifying why I wanted the ID card in the first place).

Are you kidding me that TX DPS didn't accept your docs? Which one did you go ? Check out this site. Read through and print to show them on your return.

Also, check the DPS in Hurst TX (it's on I-820- North East Mall). Their Supervisors or MODs are more experienced. Trust me.

I went to the office in Mineral Wells.

Maybe I could make a big song and dance out of it and get it done, but since my EAD is right around the corner (my lawyer believes I'll receive it before the end of the month) then it's not really worth it. I have waited, well let's say it's been a number of years, so I can afford to wait another month.
