So we're almost ready to send i485 & i130. Do you NEED to send i765 to get an employment card? i don't understand, i thought that they do automatically send you one within 2 months after you apply for an adjustment of status. Is it true? Someone please explain.

They won't send it to you if you don't apply, no.

Nothing is automatic. If you want the EAD, then you have to apply for it.

And the time frame is 3 months, NOT 2 months.

Send everything together, including the i-864. You will only waste time and possibly money if you don't.

There is no fee for the I-765 when filed in conjunction with an adjustment of status application.

Yes, don't send an incomplete package. Everything will be put on hold until you send the I-864 in anyway, so you gain nothing by sending in an incomplete package.

You have to send I-765 along with I-130 and I-145 if you would like to work. No, they don't send things automatically...in America you have to pay for everything....it's all about money. LOL :) And if you know you might leave the country then you should apply for I-131. But if you know you won't be leaving the States at all, you don't need to. I didn't apply for it as I knew I won't be going anywhere. Good luck!
