[JoAndLo 47]

Hello my friends... I just finally got a job in a bank with my EAD card.... after finishing all the paperwork I realize that I will need to renew my card in a few months because still no interview notice yet.

 

When I Initially fill my case, only did: I485. I765 and I130 I didnt file advance parole, I just tough It wasn't necesary, but at this time I really dont know how long will take the proccess and may be need advance parole to travel to my  country.

 

my question is: Can I subbmit the renewal of my EAD and submit the ADVANCE PAROLE form as well?

 

how is the proccess to Renew the EAD? if you have some similar experiences please share it with me.

 

thank you so much guys!

 

down here you all can see my timeline. I fill my case in Houston.

Houston is relatively quick least in our experience but some have said it's been rather slow lately.

 

I can't say for certainty but I think you could apply for the AP with the renewal of the EAD with no problems. 

 

Time line wise for getting it and all can vary though. Someone should have an estimate though I suppose.

File a form I-765 to renew the EAD.  File an I-131 along with a copy of your NOA from the I-485 filing to avoid a fee for the AP.

To Whom It May Concern:

 

I filed for Adjustment of Status (I-485) on April 27, 2018. I’m filing my Advance Parole Document (I-131) application concurrently with this request for an Employment Authorization Document (I-765). I filed the I-485 after July 29, 2007, and paid a one-time filing fee. Therefore, as an Adjustment of Status applicant, I am not required to pay additional USCIS fees for this I-765 request.

 

I am enclosing the following documents in support of my application for Employment Authorization:

 

1. Form I-765, Application for Employment Authorization

2. Form G-1145, E-Notification of Application/Petition Acceptance

3. Copy of my current Employment Authorization Document (Front and back)

4. Two identical passport-style color photographs

5. Copy of I-797, Notice of Action, approval notice of current I-765

6. Copy of I-797C, Notice of Action, receipt notice of pending I-485

 

I am requesting that your office promptly approve my request for an Employment Authorization Document. If you have any questions or concerns, please call me at (000) 000-0000. Thank you for the time taken in this case.

Yes. When does your EAD expire? Late August 2019? If so, don't submit the forms earlier than late February 2019; https://www.uscis.gov/greencard/employment-authorization-document:

Renewal EAD

 

If you are still eligible for employment authorization but your EAD will be expiring or has expired, you should file for a renewal EAD by submitting a new Form I-765 and filing fee (if required), unless a fee waiver is requested and approved. Generally, you should not file for a renewal EAD more than 180 days before your original EAD expires.

Your EAD doesn’t expire until 08/24/2019, right?  I wouldn’t stress over renewing it at this time. Just go ahead and apply for AP and see what happens. Good luck!

Like @Diane and Chris said, you can file the I-131 now to receive a stand-alone AP document:

Change the first paragraph of the cover letter above:

Quote

I filed for Adjustment of Status (I-485) on April 27, 2018. I filed the I-485 after July 29, 2007, and paid a one-time filing fee. Therefore, as an Adjustment of Status applicant, I am not required to pay additional USCIS fees for this I-131 request.

And send it to the appropriate Lockbox (based on the first three letters of your I-485 receipt notice): https://www.uscis.gov/i-131-addresses

The time frame for renewal is different for EAD and AP. If you want file renewal for both, you have to wait until 120 days before expiration.

I am confused about the "April 27, 2018" and "July 29, 2007"? 

Why is it different date?
