I got EAD and 131 at different times. I just sent my application to renew my 131 and I did all by myself because bdv was charging $270 for the service. I’m still waiting for my receipt notice but I can let you know in case it works

thank you @Barb B. I’m on the same boat and it’s been 3 months since I filled the renewal for my 131. 😩

I just sent my application to renew my 131 as well. I sent it last Wednesday.

@Monique cruz @Bill : ) did you guys got the receipt notice?

@Barb B hi barb, what kinds of documents you submitted for the renewal??? I am about to do too 🥲🥲🥲

I applied in last week of September and I got receipt notice 3 days ago for 765 and 131

I sent for a renew travel document in the last week of August. They received it on August 30th and sent me a receipt on September 8th. The status still says received but Emma told me that on September 8th they used the old fingerprints. My old travel expires on the 15th of December and I'm hoping to get a new one or a green🤞 one by the end of the year😁

@Barb B when we can renew? is it 5 or 6 months before expired day?

@Tara Lee @Andrei D Hi guys! docs that I sent: new 131 form ( DONT FORGET TO SIGN ) copy of old 131 copy of 485 receipt notice two passaport photos size for the address it varies according your receipt notice: check it here - https://www.uscis.gov/i-131-addresses Go to “applicants with pending 485 form “ and check on “Filling 131 alone, and your form 485 begins with..” to see the right address

@tiko tiko EB 3 Other worker 🍀🍀🍀

by the way.. during the retrogression they should make those renewals automatic right? it could save a lot of time for them. I really don’t understand why they keep their system so complicated

After this status, I really wanted to travel to my country for 10 days, I hope it will not be a problem if I go and return before the expiration of the first travel document.🙄

This document should have more than one year.

@Bill : ) @Monique cruz @Barb B how soon are you all renewing it? x months before expiration?

My AP expires in January 2024. I've researched a lot about it and most people suggest sending it 4 months before it expires.

@Bill : ) it should have at least 2years for everybody. my husband got it with 2 years mine only 1 🫠

@waiting Eb3 unskilled you can send with 180 days before expiration. I sent mine one week before expiration. let’s see

I got today approval notice and it’s 5 years approval and September 14th online status changed to card was produced

@unskilled d wow congrats! did you have to pay a fee for both EAD and AP?

no

I didn’t pay

@unskilled d omg! it was fast!!! amazing. they received mine now my status is fingerprints. so total 2 months to they approved yours??

@Monique cruz @Bill : ) what is your status guys?

They got my application last Friday, but I haven't got a receipt yet. My last application took 2 months to get a receipt.

@Bill : ) I see.. mine got there on 10/11 and receipt came 10/21. let’s see how fast they will process it.

I got my receipt today 🕺

@Bill : ) 🎊🎊🎊🎊🎊

just to let you know that my travel permit renewal was approved today!!

@Monique cruz that’s awesome. congrats 😀 how long did it take?

@Barb B Alguma atualização?

@Monique cruz wohooo 🩷🩷🩷

@Bill : ) still fingerprints.. waiting for it anytime soon.. 🙏🏻 by JAN I’ll apply to renew my EAD

@Bill : ) how about yours?

@Monique cruz hey Monique did you apply for EAD as well?

I took 4 months to approval. on March I will apply for EAD. also, my parole is valid until 2028. which means that it will take a long time until GC. good luck guys!!

@Barb B after one month Case was received.

@Monique cruz Your advanced parole came with five years? Wow, that's awesome. Initially, I thought it only applied to combo cards

@Bill : ) @Monique cruz I know right? most of ppl that I saw here got the same 5 years.. I agree with the same, they are trying to send the message about how long GC process is gonna take

@Bill : ) amigo! meu AP acabou de ser aprovado :)

@Barb B O teu mudou de status ou foi de recebido direto para aprovado? o meu tá quase dois meses e só aparecer caso recebido.

@Bill : ) eles receberam dia 11 de outubro, no dia 16 de outubro mudou para fingerprints e ontem card being produced e case was approved horas depois. foram exatos 2 meses

@Barb B O meu está quase com dois meses também e nunca mudou para fingerprint was taken. estranho isso. Mas fiquei feliz pelo teu ter saído. Parabéns

@Barb B O teu foi pro Nebraska?

@Bill : ) Nao! Phoenix. meu procssso começa com LIN e como mandei só o 131 com cópia do 485 o endereço indicado era phoenix

@Barb B O meu é a mesma coisa

@Barb B Parece mentira, mas meu caso acabou de ser aprovado! menos de 2 meses 😀😀

@Bill : ) vivaaaaa 🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷

@Bill : ) hehehe way to go

@Barb B Teu AP veio com duas páginas também?

@Bill : ) menino, o meu não chegou ainda.. e nem vai chegar amanhã q já olhei aqui. weird! Pq meu recibo chegou rápido e no endereço certo e nunca tive problema com nenhuma correspondência deles. amanhã vou vê se ligo pra vê o que rolou. quando chegar te falo! o seu veio de 5 anos?

@Barb B Ja aqui o AP chegou na sexta e hoje tá chegando o recibo. Então veio sim, válido até 2028. Fiquei feliz quando vi isso, pelo menos não vou precisar renovar novamente até o GC ser aprovado.

@Bill : ) aiii foi ótimo!!! esperando o meu nesses próximos dias :) let’s see!

@Barb B Vai chegar logo.

@Bill : ) it’s here. 2 páginas // 5 anos. que a próxima cartinha seja o verdinho kkk ✨✨✨

@Barb B Amém! Será que tem que trazer as duas páginas quando viajar?

@Bill : ) acho que só a da foto ( pelo menos foi a que levei na primeira vez q usei e é o local onde fica a assinatura carimbo. porém, just in case, eu levaria// levarei as duas na próxima ida

@Barb B Ah sim, na minha as duas páginas tem foto e lugar para o Carimbo, por isso também levarei as duas.
