How to file EAD renewal

E-Filing Reference Guide

https://efiling.uscis.dhs.gov/efile/

Include the Confirmation Receipt notice as the first page of the supporting documentation for each application.

In almost all cases, submit a photocopy of your supporting document to the USCIS.

Place all supporting documentation into one package and mail it to the address provided on the Confirmation Receipt notice.

If you are e-Filing Form I-90, Form I-131, or Form I-765, see Photographs and Fingerprints.

Photographs and Fingerprints

USCIS requires photographs and fingerprints for certain applications. The information below tells you which applications require photographs and fingerprints and how they are provided to USCIS.

Form I-131, Application for a Travel Document
If you are e-Filing Form I-131, you will need to submit two identical color paper photographs with your Supporting Documents. See Paper Photograph Requirements for more information.
You do not need to submit fingerprints for this form.

Form I-765, Application for Employment Authorization
If you are e-Filing Form I-765, you do NOT need to submit paper photographs and you do NOT need to self-schedule an appointment at an Application Support Center for the electronic capture of your biometrics. You will receive a notice in the mail from the USCIS that will provide you with your USCIS-scheduled appointment for capturing biometrics and photographs at an Application Support Center.


You MUST bring the following materials to your biometrics appointment, or processing of your Form I-765 will NOT be completed at your scheduled time:

1. Biometrics appointment notice.

2. Photo Identification. Acceptable kinds of photo identification are:
Passport or national photo identification issued by your country, or
Driver’s license, or
State-issued photo identification card.

Paper Photograph Requirements for E-Filed Applications

On August 2, 2004, USCIS announced a change in photograph requirements for all applicants from a three-quarter face position to a standard, full frontal face position. USCIS accepted both three-quarter and full color frontal photographs until September 1, 2004, after which only full frontal color will be accepted.

When applicable, you will need to submit color paper photographs taken within the 30 days of E-Filing your form. The number of photographs required depends on the type of application you are E-Filing. Please see Form M-603, USCIS is Making Photos Simpler, for information on the specifications and number of photographs required for each application.

Using a pencil, lightly print your Alien Registration Number (A#), if any, and E-Filing receipt number on the back of each photo sent with supporting documentation.
