Hi,

I am on H1 and my spouse is on H4. My employment based I-140 got approved today and am expecting my (and my spouse's EAD) anytime soon. Here are my queries -

a) Are there any legalities /rules invloved, if my spouse works on EAD.
b) Are there any legalities /rules invloved, if my spouse starts a company.


Any link /document/ insight would be a big help !
 
Yes

Both of you will need to go to SSN office to update your immigration status with them. She can start working I soon as she gets her EAD.
 
Sure !!!

Get the EAD , go to Local office and apply. If she can get the job let her start working .

Thanks Guys!

Do I need to go the the SSN office to update my status even if I intend to keep my H1 status. Pls. let me know.

Gurus pls. advise...whats the best way - keep on working with H1 statuses or switch to EAD? My 140 has been approved...Thx.
 
No, you don't have to update your status, but your wife needs to get an SSN based on her EAD to work. You can keep on working with your H1.
