Registered Users (C)
Gurus,
please advise ASAP. I have applied for 485 and EAD in first week of MAY 2002. But the father of sleeping giants, The Texas center, has not yet approved EAD. The local INS office informed that interim EAD will be given only on 91st day, which falls on August 5th. Meanwhile, my H1 and six years expire on July 29th.
Gurus, please let me know,
1. if I do not receive my EAD before July 29th, Would I be "OUT OF STATUS".
2. Is it necessary to go to local INS for interim EAD before July 29th and plead with the officer for earlier issuance.
3. Do I have to apply for extension of H1 (Just for six days)

Any kind of immediate help is greatly appreciated.

Thank you in advance.
:confused:
 
You are OK!

here is my understanding for your concerns.

1. You are fine without EAD. As soon as you submit your I-485, you are qualified for the AOS status. That means if you have H-1 you are still in H-1; if you do not have H-1 you in AOS.

2. You probably can do that. Depend how friendly the local INS is.

3. If you do not have EAD or valid H-1. In the GAP between 07/20-08/05, you can not work.


This is just for your reference. Contact good attorney for help.
