H1 status primary if derivative uses EAD

[jify30]

Hi everyone,

I'm on H1 currently and my I-485 is pending (I'm the primary with approved I-140). I never applied for an EAD for myself. My wife is on H4 but she also has an EAD. Now she wants to work and use her EAD.
My question is what will happen to my H1 if she uses an EAD to work?
Can I still work on H1?

Thanks

------> Nothing will happen to your H1 status. You can continue to work on H1 and your wife can use her EAD.
Can I still work on H1?
-------> Yes, you should be fine.

Thanks
