Quick question regarding I-485 package

[The Jenn 0]

This may seem like a silly question, but I figured since I couldn't figure it out any other way, I'd give this a shot.

In the I-485 packet, it calls for two identical passport style photos to be sent along with the G-325A. However, I'm also sending along the I-765 with it, and looking closer at the filing instructions it says I need two identical photos for that form too. Since they are part of the same packet, will one set suffice? Or should I send along two extra photos and attach them to the I-765?

If it helps, I'm following the VJ guide to file an I-130 for a spouse inside the U.S. Thanks!

The forms are split up and processed differently. This is why you follow instructions and include everything asked for in them. 6 photos for the 3 forms, AOS, AP, EAD.

There were several reasons why I got confused regarding the instructions, which I did read, but you've answered my question and I thank you.

This AOS thread: http://www.visajourney.com/forums/topic/235331-aos-ead-ap-from-k1-the-aussie-way-doc-list-included/ doesn't include the I-130 info but it does have the required doc list for the I-485 section... Just replace the "K1 visa" with your visa.

All you need is to send 4 passport-type photos in total with your AOS package. I've applied for everything, 765, 131, so I sent 4 photos.

Good luck. hope this helps.

I'm at this point also for my wife's AOS. I've seen 4 and I've seen 6. We're going to send 6 just to be on the safe side. If they don't need them, no harm in sending them.

Good luck everyone!

Then you were wrong. 2 required for AOS, 2 required for EAD, and 2 required for AP. You might not get an RFE for it but if you're sending 3 apps that's 2 pics per app.

OP - In your case you are sending the I-130 as well. Depending on whether you have overstay you might not be sending the AP documents.

If you send the I-130, AOS, EAD and AP that's 2 per application so 8 photos. I personally used: http://www.epassportphoto.com/ to do my AOS photos. I only had 2 and obviously needed more. They were perfect.

I'm at this point also for my wife's AOS. I've seen 4 and I've seen 6. We're going to send 6 just to be on the safe side. If they don't need them, no harm in sending them.

Exactly! Better to send more and have them shred it than not send enough and get an RFE.
