Lose H1 status?

Registered Users (C)
I am on H1-b and waiting for my AOS.
I have EAD and AP but never used yet.
I know if you use EAD for employment while waiting for AOS adjudication, you lose H1-b status.

How about this?
While maintaining employee position with GC sponsor with valid H1-b visa and receiving payroll, working as a contracor for a part time job using EAD, Will I still lose H1-b status?

The reason I want to maintain H1-b status is planning to get marry a girl from outside of USA.

I guess my AOS is not going to be adjudicated until next year at this time.

Any comment appreciated.

Thank you,


Oriental
