Applying for EAD Card After Marriage

[ImmigrationQQQT 0]

Hello Good day,

 

I need some help with anotger matter. I came to the US for school in 2013 and graduated in December 2015. I applied for OPT and work from February 2016 yo February 2017. During my OPT I found the love of my life and we got married. We got married 5 days after my OPT was expired.

 

Question:

 

1. Since I was on OPT and the USCIS issued me an EAD Card, should I specify that on the new EAD form (i-765) I am preparing to get my new EAD Card?

Apply for adjustment of status and you can include the I-765 for free. I'm in the same situation and we checked renewal on the forms. You have to include the old EAD card front and back, and when it asks where the card was issued from, that's in your EAD card number. Your A-Number is the 9-digit number on your EAD card, make sure you put that on all your AOS paperwork!

Okay thanks

So are you saying where it stated, "Which USCIS Office?" You put for A number which is the 9 digits on your old EAD card?

After that it states dates, what dates are they looking for?

 

Thanks

The USCIS office is a 3-letter abbreviation, for example YSC (Potomac service center) and you'll see those letters in the first three digits of the EAD "Card #". You can google which service center they mean. A-number is called "USCIS #" on the EAD and it's in xxx-xxx-xxx format. That A-number is like a social security number, it doesn't change, so on all the APS paperwork you'll use that when it asks for your A-number. Those were tricky questions I had when filling out my husband's EAD renewal and I asked the help line about them

Woow. I appreciate it. Also what do I put for my current immigration status?

 

i came as a student but I am still on my 60 days grace period from my OPT. I don't know what is my status because on my I-94 it states D/S

 

Thanks

F1 status

Even though it has expired? 

[ImmigrationQQQT 0]

Because it has...

 

Status of Last Entry...I put F1-Student

 

and it went on to ask, Current Immigration Status. For that field I am not certain since I have no status because OPT work card expires. 

[Apfel 46]

We put F-1 Student OPT even though it was expired because that was his last status

Thanks you very for helping me.  

 

Finally, with all of these changes being made. Do you know of all of the documents needed to file?

 

So far I have the following:

 

i-130 - Petition for alien Relative and accompany with...

i-130A - Supplementary Information for Spouse Beneficiary (Due to me filing after April 27th)

 

i-485 Application to Register Permanent Residence and accompany with...

G-325 (Beneficiary)

i765- AEA

i-131 Application for Travel Document

i-864 - Affidavit of Support

 

I am not for if the Petitioner needs an G-325 but you guys can let em know what is missing and advice as to if a G-325 is needed for the Petitioner. 

 

Thanks A Millions

The petitioner doesn't need a g-325a, beneficiary will need the medical exam I-693 with their I-485!

I got the I-693 sealed from the Doctor last week. I had to do STD test and a much of vaccines. So that's already covered.
