I entered USA in F1 visa, and now I am in H1B. I have not left USA after my H1B started. My Perm (applied by my employer in EB2) recently got approved. Since processing time is current for EB2, I want to concurrently apply I-140 and I-485 soon. However, I applied for MRP passport in the beginning of January and most probably I will receive new passport in a couple of months more. I have the copies of my old passport.
Is it ok to file I-485 with the copy of old passport (it is valid till 2017)?
Is passport mandatory for Biometrics appointment or will state driver license suffice?

Your opinion is appreciated.
