Hello All,

Lot of our EAD/AP are set to expire in February/March time-frame which means we are almost ready for our renewal. Since we paid $1070 at the time of 485 application i guess we don't have to pay the renewal fees.

what are the documents required?

1. completed i-765
2. completed i-131
3. copy of current combo card
4. photos?
5. i94?
6. current 765 receipt/approval copy?
7. current 131 receipt/approval copy?

If someone has a checklist please share it with our group.

Thanks in advance
