DV 2010 AOS Only

Congrats Blue. Quite a few good news this week. Hope simpleman hears some good news soon too.

This week has brought good news to a lot of us. I check this forum every time and I keep getting updates that cases have been approved. Congrats to all of you whose cases have been approved.
I am happy for all of you and then i think of myself. I am stuck. I have not heard from them nor do I get any updates online for my I-485. My last update was 11/25 the day they asked me for additional document. I sent them the required doc right away but my case has just stopped after that.
I have an infopass appointment for 12/21 Monday cos this week I am busy with my finals. It would be good if I heard from them before that otherwise I will have to go there next Monday and try to get more info on my case.
They should have received the document I sent on 11/30. So how long does it take them to follow up?
I really want to get over with this. It would be a great relief...

question about EAD

I am filing EAD application separately with 485 and I am wondering what should I put on the following:

1. Date for my old EAD card. It is going to be when was the old EAD started?
2. what should I put for #16 Eligibility under?
3. should I leave #17 blank?

Your reply will be greatly appreciated.

Filing for EAD

question about EAD

I am filing EAD application separately with 485 and I am wondering what should I put on the following:

1. Date for my old EAD card. It is going to be when was the old EAD started?
2. what should I put for #16 Eligibility under?
3. should I leave #17 blank?

Your reply will be greatly appreciated.

Hi gagaun,

1. Yes the date the EAD started (you will have to submit a copy of your last EAD (front and back) as mentioned in the instructions on page 6 of I-765 instruction.)
2. you will put (c) (9) () - Yes the third bracket will be empty. (See instruction of I-765, pg 5, item #7 "EAD applicants who have filed for AOS, part A")
3. you can write "N/A" in #17.

You may have to check on what you will file this application under as "Permission to accept employment", "replacement" or "renewal". I am not sure on it. I am also confused about the filing fees thing as "Replacement EAD" mentioned on page 7 of the I-765 instructions. Maybe someone else can fill in those gaps.
 
Thank you for appreciating the effort

Hi nnffme, i2009 and Daima,

Thanks for acknowledging the effort. It took longer than expected as i am still out of town and don't have Internet access at all times or the time to work at length.

I wish all the winners of DV add their field locations and signatures to help others who come after them and share their experiences. Our forum is nice that most of us have done that, some of us still need to do it.

We benefited from the previous winners and we should put our contributions in too.

In one of the Interviews it was asked if the applicants have a job, and once they said "no" they were asked for the Affidavit of support. So it is recommended that you have the affidavit of support prepared: one I-134 for you and one for your husband. All the best.
 
Good luck to everyone on their interview this coming week: June620 (Dec 16), Marley and nnffme (Dec 17), and to anyone else who has interview coming up.
 
Thank you very much cooldude for your answers. I think that i will do the "Permission to accept employment" since I am on H1b and had a EAD a while back which is expired.
