Question abt accepting employment based on EAD

I-140 and I 485
Hi all,

I am not sure which forum i should post this Q.

I am on H-1B and my spouse is on H-4. We have applied for GC based on my spouse’s educational qualifications. Labor, I-140, I-765 and I-131 has been approved recently. Fingerprints and everything has been taken. (Concurrent filing for i-140,I-765, I-485 and I-131)

My spouse is going to start work for the sponsoring company soon. My question is can i start working for some other company based on my EAD. The company I am working for (Which has sponsored my H-1B) may close the door soon. And if i start working for some other company do we need to notify BCIS ? My H-1 is going to be expired in March -2005. There is no way my current company is going to be in business for that long. Based on the Nebraska Service center, we may not get the green card for next one and a half year.

Any help, suggestion is appreciated. Thanks for looking.

-------- Looking at the above info it seems that your got EAD based on your spouse. You have got derivative EAD and with EAD you can work with any employer
And if I start working for some other company do we need to notify BCIS ?
----NO

---- You should have used I am on XYZ status and my wife is on ABC status and applied GC for wife who is on … status. The word WE confuses
