EAD question

Friends,
My EAD will expire at the end of October. I Just applied for extension. If I do not get the extension before end of October
will I be out of status?
I will not be able to work?
Isn't it like H1 extension, one need to apply before the current H1 get expire and the only extension receipt by USCIS is enough to keep working?

For EAD right now its about 4 months processing period and after this flood of I485 that allows till August 17. I guess EAD processing time will be more than 4 and may be 6 months. So it is likely I may not get my EAD extension before the end of October

Thanks

You canget Interm EAD after 90 days of filing

Yes you will be out of status when your EAD expires. To avoid that, if you have passed 90 days from the date of your EAD Receipt Date, you can take an InfoPass appointment to get an Interm EAD. That will allow you to maintain your status.

It is always recomended to file your EAD more than 90 days in advance. But as per the new process even if you apply for an EAD extension, before six month, they will make your renewed EAD starting from the expiration date of your current EAD and not the approved date of the renewed EAD.

Hope that answers your question.

R u sure that one can apply more than 4 months earlier than the first EAD get expire? I heard that it can not be more than 4 months.

Hello all experts,
I would like to know advance one can apply for EAD. One of my friend would like to apply 5 months before expiration of EAD. Can he? Is there any regulation how advance one can apply?
His attorney says only 4 months in advance not more than 4 months. Any one would like to share their experience or knowledge?
Thanks
