ORIGINAL POSTER
90 days report.

Applied for a non O on a visa exempt. Does the time on a visa exempt counts towards the 90 days ? I guess it does, just double checking.

What docs do you need now ? Did it online before.

And thirdly. Im currently waiting for my new passport to arrive from the UK. Can I do it on the old passport ?

TLDR : Answer Summary
The 90-day reporting requirement does not begin until you have received your first-year extension. Time spent on a visa exempt stay does not count towards this 90-day reporting requirement, which will only apply once you have obtained your extension. Typically, offices will indicate when your first 90-day report is due after your extension. Additionally, you may be able to continue using your old passport for this process while waiting for your new passport.

You got your wires crossed a bit.

You don't start 90 day reporting until you have your first year extension, that's when most offices will put a small paper in your passport showing when your first 90-day report is due.

So you don't have any 90-day report that you need to do. And you won't until you get your first year extension, which you probably will end up doing on the new passport anyway. ;)
