My understanding is that you need the actual document that comes in the mail. Not sure about your second question, sorry.

Congrats on your approval.

Yes, you need the document to travel. The approval notice is the actual document. You will get 2 copies of the same document, when you return they will keep one and stamp one and give it back to you.

well being that we just surpassed 1000 days since beginning with this process (hardly a siggy to desire), i would surmize that you are talking about my most recent approval for AP & EAD. Nothing extraordinary was done, just my local office stepped up from their incompentence last year to approve on time. It's how it should have been done. :star:

or you could be marveling at my power of organization in presenting a siggy that is succinct and clear :lol:
