Help.... emergency AP

Anyone have experience with appearing in person for AP at local office?? My wife wants to travel ASAP due to a family emergency and we are thinking of going to the Chicago BCIS to get her AP....
 
Get a letter verifying the emergency. In most cases a fax is authentic evidence. But some service centers send the AP by mail only. So there might be a wait for few days.
 
Thanks Jaxen

Hi

A while ago I obtained AP from Bos office on an urgent basis, enlcosed a letter stating my emergency, and an Itinerary for e-ticket on the same day of application.

The officer asked my how long I am going to stay abroad, I answered a Month, I was given a AP for a Month.
 
AP approved same day in Chicago

Took a fax from India stating nature of medical emergency and an itinerary.. No problems at all. 1 year AP validity.

Not sure.... Look in the forum for answers and in the home page for processing times. It varies by service center

2. What are the ways I need to be legal after my H1B expiry?
technically, once you have UR I485 receipt notice, your H1B is not needed for status. However, to work after H1B expires, you need your EAD. Also, I think H1B can be extended in 1 year increments based on AC21 as long as you dont change employers.. confirm this. Not 100% sure.
 
Hi dfagen19

Hi dfagen19

I am planning to go to San Jose tom for trying emergency AP. I just had some questions for u...


1. Is it necessary to have a cashier check or a normal check will do for the 110$ amount

2. I have Drs letter stating that my mother is sick and needs complete bedrest and stuff. Its a standard letter which is a fax. You think this will suffice...

3. Do I need to take 2 snaps (INS type) for the emergency AP.

PLS ADVISE...Will appreciate your help

Nice guy

Cashiers check is your best bet

I think so; also take proof of travel (tickets or itinerary)

3. Do I need to take 2 snaps (INS type) for the emergency AP.

Yes
