W/o EAD or iEAD..stay is legal but not work. Take unpaid vacation for that period. Bcos, if ever you wish to apply for citizenship (ofcourse first 485 approval.. good luck ) these periods would be watched.
Few reasons that are standard apart from the actual reason are
1. Reduction in workforce towards cost savings to sustain the company

Thanks Goodsaint,
485 pending for 14 months, no RFE yet.
If EAD expires by mar first week whereas;

My spouse is on H4, her EAD expires by 03/06/03. Applied for EAD renewal on Jan 28th.. So can get iEAD only by Apr28th. In this meantime, is it legal for her to accept a new job?
Thanks,

was issued in Sep'02 & perm GC was obtained in dec'02
Any further updates?
