Just got my EAD

thanks guys! Well, Rex, I've had a SSN for a while bc I worked in the US before with a J-1 visa. I guess I was luckier than many people that lived here for ages and were never able to apply for a SSN. I could only imagine how frustrating it might be to have an EAD in hand but you can't work , can't have driver's license, can't file taxes, apply for a loan, credit card.... all bc you don't have SSN.
Still, I'll go to the SS office on Monday to finally legally change my name to my married name (even though all my docs, CC, bank accounts, car stuff are all in my married name) I also need to remove those conditions from my SS card. YAY!!!
Thanks for everyone's support, like many of you have been saying. Our personal experiences made us know more about the USCIS than many shady lawyers
I am so glad I am not paying anyone to do this, how would I know that lawyer is serious or is just trying to rip immigrants off? thanks, thanks again guys! And good luck to everyone.

And good luck to everyone.It's a card, like a DL I guess that is the best way to describe it, it's white with red trim at the top. It has your name, signature, thumbprint, A#, receipt #, DOB, category you filed, sex, country of birth, terms and conditions, expiration and it says it's not valid for reentry to the US. That is why you need to get AP if you are not a PR yet.
After I wrote all of these, I googled and found this http://www.ilw.com/immigdaily/news/i-766.jpg
Only that the picture is not weird like taht anymore showing your ear. I was lucky I got a good pic when I did my FP code 2

hahahaha I hope your picture is not too bad! Did you get your FP done yet? They use that picture. And positive thinking is always good, that I know!

Try a different line, Publicus and Ari always say that and if you see their faces
...believe me it doesn't work

Oh my god!!!
Suzy!!!! What have you done to your face? Is it so scary that they had to white-out parts of your EAD?? Im sure publicus must have looked at this pic when he wanted to marry you... http://www.ilw.com/immigdaily/news/i-766.jpg
Publicus... you still have time to withdraw your offer
. Dont tell me that i dint warn you Suzy977 said:Ari, how many times do I have to tell you, this is why you GC picture was rejected, you should show your right ear
I think Publicus may fall in love with you, you're his type, sexy and and hairy
I still dont understand. You made your own card and still screwed up with the picture? For the picture on my card, i can blame you for that since you helped me print my card
. I only paid you $$$ for it. I cant wait to see how publicus's pic looks like as you did it for free ari4u said:I still dont understand. You made your own card and still screwed up with the picture? For the picture on my card, i can blame you for that since you helped me print my card
You want to see Publicus, you'll love him, you and him...a match made in Heaven.

Hey, Just found these forums.. geez, glad to know im not alone in this
My wife is filing for her green card (well, i'm pretty much doing all the paperwork, but hehe) Anyways, I just got this notice online:Does this mean they mailed the card itself yesterday? or did they mail a letter to go get the card? or what? We're excited, as this is the first time 'approved' has appeared on any of our documents, etc.. heh.. sorta wondering
She had her code3 FP like, 3 weeks ago. I485 & 765 RD is 12/28/05. Is this slow? fast? or average? Also, I got a RFE for the 485.. for 3 items I already sent them.. oh well, sent new copies anyways.
Sorry, didnt mean to get all into it... Guess my question is, Do they send the i-766 in the mail? or do you have to go pick it up?

Congrats, your wife should get her card soon. However, I noticed that sopme people got their card in the mail a few days later, not the next day like I did. But I noticed the date on the stamp and it was 03/23 (the day I received the email about the approval. So keep your fingers crossed!
