i765 and biometrics, fee or no fee?

[jemps 0]

Hello, i am confused as to whether i need to pay for my i 765 -Employment Authorization Document and Biometrics appointment as i thought they were included in the cost of my i485. Some pages on web say fee for i 765 is $380 and others say no fee if application made with adjustment of status. Please could some one tell me if things have changed and i now need to pay more for my EAD and Biometrics.

Thanks for any help.

If you are filing 485/765/131 all together, it is all one fee for AOS.

Thank you Dohan, i changed address and my friend at previous address opened my letter from INS a few days ago which said apparently that in my AOS which i sent at the end of January, that i missed signing the i765 and including payment for it and the Biometrics. I will receive the forwarded mail from the INS tomorrow and am wondering whether the rules have changed and now the prices are not included and i need to pay.

Nothing has changed. There is no fee if the I-765 is filed with a pending I-485, category (c )(9 )-adjustment applicant. You can still find the info on the USCIS I-485 page and the I-765 instructions. Respond to the RFE with a new, signed I-765 and a copy of your I-485 filing receipt to show that you filed the I-485 and no fee is needed.

Thank you very much all members for responding. Kay Dee Cee thank you for mentioning category ©(9) needed, that was my mistake made i put the wrong category : (

They also sent my I-131 back with another I-797C saying again I failed to sign and they say my payment was incomplete or incorrect. I am applying for an advance parole document to allow me to return to USA after temporary travel and I submitted it with my paid for ($1070) I-485. I am not understanding why I am being told my payment amount is incorrect or not provided on this one. I crossed 1 (d) on part 2 of I131 so i do not understand the payment issue.

Any help very welcome and appreaciated as I wish to get back to see my mother as soon as i can.
