Concurrent I-130 and I-485 Cover letter and general questions

[dkfhs0510 0]

Hello all. I got married last year and I've been gathering information and filling out papers for I-485 and I-130. As of now, I am part of DACA(deferred action for childhood arrivals) and I had some questions about that, too.

First of all my wife and I have filled out the following applications: I-130, G-325a(for both of us), I-485, I-864, and I-693(waiting for the results from the hospital).

Here's a question. Being part of DACA, I've already received the EAD card and able to work, but do I have to apply for I-765 again and get a new EAD card? If so or not, how many passport photos do I need to send in total? I have 2 for my wife but I don't know how many I need. I know the applications are being submitted concurrently, I don't know if I have to send one for each application. For example, if I submit a G-325a for I-130, do I need to make another copy for I-485? Same goes for passport copies and all others.

Also, can someone check my cover letter and see if anything is missing?

Apply for a new EAD. The category will be different now. You will apply under (c )(9 ), which is for an adjustment applicant. Yes, send what each form requires, even if you are sending duplicates of things. So, passport photos and copy of your previous EAD, front and back, for the I-765 as well.
