My K-3 visa expired in March and my I-94 is about to expire on June 18,
2006. I applied for the renewal of my EAD in March, however, I
received a Request for Additional Evidence letter askig for copies of
my K-3 visa and I-94 (these were submitted along with the application,
so I don't know why they're asking me to resubmit these documents).

My questions are:
1) Will my expired K-3 visa and expiring I-94 be a problem for the
renewal of my EAD??

2) I am going to adjust status soon, should I wait until the I-485 has
been sent to USCIS before I submit the "additional" documents they
require, so I can provide a copy of the USCIS receipt for the I-485.

3) How likely will I be given an EAD while the AOS is pending??

4) If I apply for a temporary EAD, will it be approved?

Hope to get a reply SOON! Thanks!

Bad news: You just wasted $180 - Your I-765 will get denied
Good news: You can apply for a new EAD under category c 9 as soon as you
adjust status

If the OP filed for EAD renewal in March, before the K-3 expired, why wouldn't USCIS continue issuing that EAD once they receive the RFE information? If the OP applied for EAD *after* the K-3 expired, I can see why the EAD would be denied...but what if they applied *before*?

If you applied for the EAD before your K-3 expired, you will likely get it. If you applied after your K-3 expired, it will be denied. You can apply for a new EAD at the same time you apply for AOS.

The applicant has to be eligible for the EAD at both the time of application
and the time of adjudication.
I have been denied myself (both from the service center and the distict
office (for interim EAD) because I was no longer eligible 3 months down the
road.
