Hi all
I'm recently applied for AOS and the question is that I applied with my wife's company because her labor got approved first as my labor is still pending....Now once I get my EAD ..can I quit my current employer and work for myself or other employers?!!!
If so what will be my status then ..Am I on h1 and what happenes to my status..?!!

You're okay

You shall be okay to do whatever you want - if you got an EAD based on yourwife's employment. Your status will be "status adjustee" and your H-1 will lost unless you apply an appropriate H-1 at the new company. The only risk is that, if your wife's green card application is denied, you will loss your legal status.
