can you renew EAD after you are laid off!!

[karma700]

say you apply for 485/EAD, then your EAD is approved. after a few months, you get laid off. Can you file for EAD renewal if your EAD is expiring in few months and you dont have a job yet!!

it doesn't matter if you are currently working or not.

Yes. You can.

 

[Who cares]

Yes you can

Yes, you can. Looking at the current trends, it is taking close to 5 months for EAD approval hence, apply at least 5 months in advance.
