    Error in EAD card Received

    Wbat exactly is wrong with the validity date? I've read that EAD validity dates tend to be EITHER of the following, depending on the service center: (a) Day after expiry of previous EAD (b) Date of issue. If the validity date on your card is either of those, I doubty there's any error...

    <b>SSN Question<b>

    Yoda, your wife won't lose H4 status by getting an SSN based on her EAD. People do this ALL THE TIME. Nagakoosu is just plain wrong on this. However, you have to decide who to believe.

    Does 485 Approval mean that Visa No. has been Alloted

    Correct about visa number. My daughter, also age 11, got approval in July and notice said to schedule biometric appointment via Infopass. We did that, but at the appointment they did not take any biometrics, saying these are not applicable to under-14s. However they stamped her passport and...

    What Should I do?

    I have a somewhat similar situation. In July, my family received approval notices for everyone and plastic cards for husband and me, all on the same day. We adults had done code 3 biometrics so it made sense that we got our cards right away. However, our child's approval notice said she...

    Stay away, from 'Sour Vanilla of Manila'

    Good advice as always, POJ. This Manila flap prompted me to go look at the current Visa Bulletin (for September 2005). One thing that does seem clear from the FY 2006 forecast therein, is that Priority Dates are likely to be important for everybody. I notice that most posters don't include...

    485 approval notice

    They are two separate things. I experienced the exact same sequence of online notices as you. Both the notice and the card subsequently arrived on the same day, a couple of days after the online status changed from "card ordered" to "approval notice mailed". Congratulations, there's every reason...

    after card?

    Here is a summary from USCIS itself: http://uscis.gov/graphics/howdoi/PermRes.htm Note that males aged 18 through 25 must register for selective service. This applies to dependents who get green cards too. See link at the above URL.

    Question on 485 and AP

    People get their I-485s approved while they are out of the country all the time. It happened to my daughter this summer. However, if you have AP it's not a problem returning to the US in this scenario. Don't worry about it.

    Approved!!!

    No you don't. The first approval emails we received said "After approving... we ordered you a new card." A few days later, we got some emails saying "This case has been approved... approval notice mailed..." A couple of days after that, the approval notices and the actual plastic cards all...

    What is Welcome Notice?

    Sue, http://www.sss.gov/ I've read elsewhere that failure to register is an absolute bar to getting US citizenship, ever. So it seems like it would be very important for your son to follow up on this promptly.

    Pending I-485, strange REF on EAD

    There were RFEs on 3 out of 4 EADs in our family. They were basically for copies of information that had already been sent. Sent the requested info and the EAD was issued quite quickly thereafter, in all 3 cases. Conclusion: RFE on EAD is not so unusual; try not to worry about it.

    How much longer for plastic card?

    What matters now, though, is whether or not, in addition to fingerprinting all your fingers, they additionally digitally captured (a) a photo of you, (b) your signature, (c) a single fingerprint. The photo etc. are for producing the plastic card.

    Same scenario exactly Congratulations, track140! We have the same scenario as you. Husband and I received the same email as you did (but with date July 8), on last Monday. Our 11 year-old daughter's case had an LUD update on 7/8, as did our two, and then all three again on 7/11 - the day we...

    Cards orderes!!!

    We have a very similar situation with 11 year old daughter. Received emails this week stating "After approving your application we ordered you a new card" for husband and me. We had not previously received any approval notification of any kind, so this seemed a bit unusual. Daughter's case had...

    Dependant/derivative QUESTION

    Ellada, I think your husband's H4 is extinguished. He is now just an "adjustee" which is fine, unless he wants to travel. For travel, he'd need an AP. I actually have a very similar situation. We have received emails that my husband's and my I-485s were approved last Friday (7/8/05). The LUD...

    Wrong country on GC or maybe not?

    Rosie, according to Wikipedia: So probably that is the wrong country on your GC. As to whether or not this matters, I don't know.
