EAD with Invalid A# number

[spider2272]

Hi IV Gurus,



My Attorney filed my EAD application with invalid A# number in May,08 and my EAD got approved in July,08 with Invalid A# number. While going through my EAD card, I found invalid A# number on my EAD Card.



I sent a email to attorney regarding this one and he says that they filed EAD with invalid A# number and USCIS approved the EAD with Invalid A# number.It should not be an issue and the only way to ‘fix’ this would be to file a new I-765 application and get a new EAD. It is certainly not an issue for employment eligibility at your current company".



Attorney also saying that they can file new EAD, but he needs send my Original EAD card along with the application.



My Questions are
1).Do I need send my Original EAD along with new EAD application ? Can I file with new EAD application with photo copy of my current EAD ?
2). Can I keep my current EAD (with Invalid A# Number on it) and apply next re-newel period with correct A# Number?
3).If I leave the country, while coming back at Port Of Entry do I see any problem? My I-485 and AP with valid A# Number and EAD with Invalid A# Number..
4).Do I see any issue, if I switch job with current EAD with Invalid A# Number?


Please give your suggestions.



Thanks.

Hi Spider,

Sorry, I dont know the answer to your question about resending the EAD..
But, could you tell me if your EAD renewal was filed electronically or on paper?

Thanks and all the best,
