EAD and H-1
Hi Folks,
Those of you with experience in changing from H-1 to EAD, please respond.

I and my wife have been on H-1B (each of us has own H-1) My spouse has pending I-140, we applied for I-485 as well as EAD and AP.

What Do I and my wife need to do when we receive EAD ??
What are the consequences if I continue with my present H-1 ?

The reason why I am sking is: My HR filed for H-1 extension for me at the same time my wife's I-485 along with EAD applications for both of us are filed. Is this a potential problem ??

I understand from the posts here that I have to talk to HR and have them change some papers work ?? is that right ?
Please advise me....
thanks
 
Hi peace0901,

We are in the same boat as you, both my wife and me are on separate H-1, and our respective companies have applied for I-140. Now we are wondering whether we should do concurrent I-485, and if so whose I-140 reciept to use.

I talked to my attorneys and they said that whatever we decide, we should apply for EAD/AP for both of us, and after getting it we can decide whether to use it or stay on H-1 status.
