Hey guys,

I need some info on whether or not to submit the employment i-765 form.

I am currently here in the USA on a company sponsored H2B work visa valid till April 2017, my wife is the US citizen and I am the beneficiary.

So far we have filled in

G-325a

I-485

I-130

I-864

I-693

G-1145

With my work visa being valid still for another 6 months, should i submit the I-765 form.

While the paperwork is pending, I will still be working for my current company that as sponsored my H2B visa.

Yes. It's free. And you won't have to stop working if your AOS takes longer than expected.

You should, yes.

And you would check the box for "Permission to accept employment" since this is under a new category (C-9).
