TN to GC

I mailed my AOS package (I-485, I-765, I-131 etc..) to TSC during the first week of June. I am yet to receive notification that the package is in the system. My TN permit will expire in early September. Should I start thinking about a mail in TN renewal or will I not be out of legal status because of the submission of the AOS package? What if I don\'t get any acknowledgement from TSC before my TN expires? Anyone with an opinion or similar experience please help.
Regards,
Al

I was in the very same position 1 year ago. My TN was to expire in September and my attorney was filing I-485, EAD and AP in July. He also filed a TN extension as he said that you cannot rely on the EAD being completed in time. Somehow, it is possible to extend a TN even though an I-485 has been filed. Extend the TN by mail only. DO NOT GO TO THE BORDER!

I\'m still waiting on the I-485. All other documents were approved. By the way, the EAD was approved before my TN expired. However, as my attorney said, DO NOT rely on it being this way. File a TN extension.

A, I\'m not certain about the TD\'s. In my immigration case, it\'s just me, so I have no experience with TD\'s. :)

If I had to guess, I think that you would need to extend the ID\'s as well. If your AD is not done in time and you therefore remain in TN status, then I suppose that for your family members to remain in legal status they would still need the TD\'s.
