I am in h4. Can I apply EAD ONLY WHEN MY HUSBAND GETS I 140 FORM READY OR NOW A DAYS H4 VISA HOLDERS ARE ALSO ELIGIBLE for EAD IS what generally we think . if I get EAD i can atleast join in school as an assistant teacher. Please guide me.
Don't know about the rule now , but years ago one would get EAD after the I-140 is approved and the I-485 application is submitted. You can meanwhile work on getting your teaching credentials , so by the time the EAD is approved you are ready to work. Best wishes !
Now, it says I 140 IS NEEDED. . IT MIGHT TAKE AROUND 1 YEAR for us to get I 140. yes I will use this time to improve teaching skills in USA.
Yes. For the long-suffering H1b spouse, there is a special dispensation -- s/he can get EAD if the I-140 had been applied for, but those on the first-six years of H1b, will have to wait for that approved I140. Like they say, some of these documents take longer than an elephant's gestation period.
