我們的情況有點複雜，先謝過8老師閱讀：我們的EAD/AP卡2019年四月份過期，目前還沒有麵試通知。PD日期是2017年6月1日。因錯過一天，I-485去年十月底filed的。從目前情況看，EB1的final action 日期是2016年6月1日。我們估計明年四月過期都無法等到麵試了。律師建議我們盡塊遞交延期。查網上信息似乎顯示，EAD/AP卡延期是免費的。 是對的嗎？
-Yes, it is free.
但律師這邊是每人750刀。一家人就是2000多刀了。-DIY!
我們想自己file， 又怕得罪律師。
-Not al all! It is your personal business, not anyone else.
想請問一下8老師。這種情況自己file拒的可能性大不大？
-Nearly 0% of denial.
律師遞是不是就有更多把握？
-irrelevant.
我們的主申請人可以由employer付律師費。但如果一家人不一起遞交延期是否不好？
-You have the I-485 receipt, don't you? If you don't have the I-485 receipt notice, ask the lawyer to give it to you, and this is your right. It is very simple to file EAD/AP extension application. Just file I-131 for AP renewal and file I-765 for EAD renewal, and provide the copy of I-485 receipt notice and the copy of the old EAD for each I-765 application (this is the only support document you need to provide). You of course don't need the lawyer's service.
By the way, you only can file AP/EAD renewal application in advance up to 120 days before the old AP/EAD expires.
另外因為等待AP卡過程中，主申請人出國了，所以AP combo卡被拒掉了。這次仍準備申請AP卡。所以這次是否是重新遞交AP卡申請？
-Yes.
還是申請延期EAD卡，在此基礎上申請AP combo卡？其他家庭成員沒有出國，所以他們有APcombo卡，隻需要申請延期就行。
-AP and EAD applications (renewal or first time application) are two separate cases. But if you file I-131 and I-765 at the same time (e.g. send them in one package), then USCIS will issue you one AP/EAD Combo card which has two functions-travel & employment. If you send I-131 and I-765 separately, USCIS will issue you AP and EAD separately when they are approved. I hope I have addressed this issue clearly to you here.
非常感謝8老師辛勤無私的幫助！
