Hi! I hope someone can share their experience/knowledge about my situation..
Here is some background:
- My husband and I are currently working using H1-B.
- We are both in our 7+ years extension period (H1-B extended based on
approved I-140).
- Our 485 applications have been pending for 1.5 years.
- Our EADs are renewed every year, but not used for employment (so far).
- I am the primary applicant.
Questions:
-If I lose my job (which is possible due to some restructuring) and am unable to find another, what will be the status of our AOS applications?
- In that case, could my husband get H1 transfer and could I go into H4 status - without abandoning our AOS applications?
- If I do find another job, can I continue working on H1B or do I have
to use EAD to retain my AOS processing?
Thanks!
