Specific Questions on EAD/AP Renewal-Please Help

[I Have Patience]

Hello All,


I am filing EAD/AP renewal.I need answers regarding the following queries.I plan to paper file.

1. How many copies of AP need to be sent as documentaion?

2.What should I write for the date EAD was applied last time.Is it the 485 filing date or date on EAD card?
(This is Q 11 on EAD form)

3. The check for EAD is to be written to INS....are they really accepting on outdated name?

4. The photographic requirement for AP and EAD are very different-one requires 1.5 x 1.5 inch.Other requires 2x 2.One needs retouched pics other needs unretouchedand so on....What to do about that? I remember last time I sent all same kind.

5.When I applied for original EAD my husband had only 1 passport,but now in between his passport expired and he had a new one(visa is stamped on old one so he carries both).Do we need to send biographic info of both his passports or only one-if yes -which one?Hope this is not an issue with them.


Please pour in your opinions.I need to file them fast.

--To be on safe side, I would send copies of both passports (one which is expired as well the valid one.

One last thing, don't forget to send in the EAD mailer too (which you would have received with your first EAD approval)...makes things faster.
