We (my wife, daughter and myself) received our plastic cards today (02/19/02). PP stamped at San Antonio on 01/28/02.
When I went for PP stamping, the lady said they had my date of birth wrong on their system. She made a copy of my passport and driver\'s license to correct it. But, still the...
documents for PP stamping
I-94 is the arrival/departure record.
Please take all EADs and APs (if any).
My experience has shown that it is advisable to have a birth certificate handy.
Do as your lawer says
I had to change jobs after 180 days of filing I-485. I requested the lawyer of the new company to inform the INS about this job change. The lawyer wrote a letter to the INS, including a letter from the company stating my job title (which was the same from my old job) and...
Yes..there could be a problem
Once I-485 is approved, AP is invalid. You could have a problem. There is a big discussion about this in the main I-485 issues forum. Check it out.
If you have been waiting for over 90 days since passport stamping for your plastic card (I-551 Alien Registration Card), try sending in this form (G-731). No fees for this form.

Not to worry

I-485 receipt not needed for travel.
I recently travelled using AP. No one asked me for the I-485 receipt (or anything else) except for the original AP (of course). I recommend you having a copy of the I-485 receipt.

Your attorney will receive the official copy. You will receive a courtesy copy. Many say that the courtesy copy is accepted by the INS for passport stamping.
Is Stamping of Passport after I-485 approval mandatory? Can\'t I just wait for the Plastic Card if I have no intention of traveling before I get the Plastic Card?
You are correct
although I think you do not need previous APs. If you have them no harm in taking them along with you. Good Luck. Please post your experience after you are done.
