My AOS application package is almost ready, I just have little concern regarding the I-756 application.
In 2006 I came in with a J1 visa (Exchange visitor) for 3 months and the whole process was taken care of by the program sponsor. When the visa was approved, I was authorized to work and received a SSN that was valid only with DHS Authorization.
I never received an EAD, all I got was a DS-2019 that was stamped by the inspector at the airport. After the J1 ended, I went back to back to my country.
But now I'm currently on a B1/B2 and married to a US. Citizen.
My questions are:
1)What should I check in the beginning of the I765 form:
a) Permission to accept employment
b) Replacement (I know it's not this one)
c) Renewal of my permission to accept employment
2. What should I check on Item #11 "Have you ever before applied for employment authorization from USCIS? When it asks to which USCIS office I had previously applied for my EAD, and the date, which date is it? Is it the beginning of my OPT? or is it the date when I sent my application?
3. Should I attach copies of this documents (visa, ssn, DS-2019) or a letter explaining this?
You're help will be much appreciated, I'm hoping to have everything ready by monday.
Thanks in advance.
