Mine and my wife's EAD expires Jan, 2005. The form says EAD renewal must be applied 6 months before expiry. Is it ok if I send the renewal app now??

I am on H1 and my wife is on advanced parole.

Can someone help me what I should put for these questions on 765 form?

10. Alien Registration Number or I-94

WHere do I find Alien registration number for my wife? I think I can specify I-94 number. Where can I find my Alien registration number?


11. Have you ever applied for EAD..?

I'll say Yes. Granted and from Laguna Niguel.

14. Manner of last entry (Visitor, Student etc)?

i am on H1, what should i say for that?
my wife is in advance parole. what should i say for her?

15. Current Immigration status. (Visitor, Student etc)?

we both are working. i am on H1. shes using her EAD.

16. Since my 485 is pending i should say (c)(9). is that right?

where should i mail the apps to? i am in san jose, california.

what documentation should i provide? i am attaching 2 recent pics for each of us. copies of EAD. copy of 485, 140 pending notices.

can i get a sample cover letter?
