Hi guys,

Sounds like crazy, but I just read this from the newly-downloaded AP (I-131) application...

What is the filing fee?
....

NOTE: If you filed a Form I-485, Application to RegisterPermanent Residence or Adjust Status, as of July 30, 2007,no fee is required to also file a request for advance paroleon Form I-131. You may file the I-131 concurrently withyour I-485, or you may submit the I-131 at a later date. Ifyou file Form I-131 separately, you must also submit acopy of your Form I-797C, Notice of Action, receipt asevidence of the filing of an I-485 as of July 30, 2007.

...

What does this mean???!!! For all before July 30, 2007 I-485 filters, we don't need to pay fees to get AP any more?

I must be mis-reading something.. please correct me...
 
correct: we still need to pay the filing fee..

The above note only applies to those who filed their I-485 with the new fee (over 1000 something) and wanted also to apply AP/EAD. If one applied I-485 with the old fee, they would need to pay the new $305 filing fee for AP.
