  • Marriage based concurrent filing of forms I-130, I-130a, I-864, I-485, I-765, I-131

    Hello all, my wife and I are filing for the green card application. We have compiled the documents listed in the following cover letter. We wish to file all of the forms at the same time to smoothen the process. I am already working with an OPT EAD, so I also decided to file for form I-765 to renew my EAD with form I-485. Is it the right list? Is there anything we should add/subtract from the following?

    You are not "renewing" your F1 OPT EAD. Select "Initial permission to accept employment". This is the first EAD you're applying for via AOS. So you're not renewing your F-1 OPT EAD. Otherwise they'll likely reject your application.

    I would also create a Table of contents for your I-130 evidence of bona fide marriage. I would send more. The times of sending USCIS the bare minimum are long gone. Take a look at the links within this thread. https://www.immihelp.com/forum/showt...interview-tips
    Focus on #9 Table of contents put together by Emerald 2020. Then take a look at mine. That's #3. You want to show longevity of your relationship. Otherwise, they will ask you if you met today, got married tomorrow, and then filed the day after tomorrow. It's good to show evidence from the time you met.
    I did not look through the other items on your list. I just noticed right away that you could definitely present more evidence. Look through the tables I mentioned. List your evidence using full sentences. Tell them what the evidence means.

    Here is what the I-130 instructions state. ALL evidence is required at the time of filing.
