USCIS Reusing Biometrics For EAD Renewal Applications

USCIS Reusing Biometrics For EAD Renewal Applications

March 30, 2020

On March 30, 2020, the USCIS issued an alert that it will reuse previously submitted biometrics in order to expeditiously process valid EAD extension applications (Form I-765, Application for Employment Authorization). This policy was set in place in response to the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic.

Applicants who had an appointment scheduled on or after the March 18 closure, or who have filed an I-765 extension, will have their application processed using previously submitted biometrics.

If you have questions about a recently filed EAD extension application, contact Lally Immigration Services, LLC at (617) 870-1000 or by email to [email protected].
