EAD RENEWAL! WHAT ADDRESS?? EAD AND AP?? I NEED HELP!

[gm23 0]

Hey there,

So I am renewing EAD 765 and AP 131 combo card for my wife. In 4 1/2 months it expires. I've been told since I am under AOS and am waiting for interview my fee is waived. My question is this; to what address do I send the renewal forms and supporting documents? People keep telling me it's Chicago Lockbox but my documents were send from NBC. I live in Dallas so it would make more sense to me to be Dallas Lockbox. 

 

I know my application is under category c9 and it says Chicago Lockbox but on the uscis website it says the following for c9 Chicago Lockbox: 

"Pending family-based Form I-485, Application to Register Permanent Resident or Adjust Status and: You filed your application with the USCIS Chicago Lockbox, AND your receipt number begins with “MSC” OR You filed your Form I-485 with the immigration judge"

 

I didn't file the first EAD application at Chicago Lockbox nor was approved by an immigration judge. It still is Chicago?

Chicago Lockbox is the right address for all adjustment of status, regardless of you living in Dallas. I'm willing to bet you sent the original ones to chicago. The lockbox is just an administrative center before it gets forwarded to the NBC. Just doublechecking your receipt number begins with “MSC"?

Correct it starts with MSC, thanks for the clarification. So in question 15 in form I-765 where it asks Have you ever before applied for employment authorization from USCIS, it asks Which USCIS Office? Do I put NBC or Chicago Lockbox?

For that you put NBC. Chicago lockbox is just an administrative center, NBC reviews the application and issues EAD

Great! Yeah I thought that too just confirming thanks... one last question. I want to submit EAD 765 and AP 131 can I submit them both in the same packet? If so, do I have to make double copy of all the NOA for each form or one copy for both is enough?

Same packet. One copy of each NOA is enough.
