Hi,
My H1-B visa was with Company A. My Greeen card processing with Company B. Company A & B are owned by Same person. After getting my EAD I moved to Company B.
Now My H1-B visa was expiring on August 3rd 2003. At present I am working On EAD and I got my EAD Extension till Junne 2004. I know that for employment purpose EAD is enough. But for to changing Driver's licience EAD is not a valid document. I got a problem recently in DMV of PA. Then I approached my Immigration Lawer. Then he has given the following reply.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
As long as you filed I-485 while you are in legal status, you can stay in US and while your I-485 is pending. It is not necessary for you to apply for H-1B extension. However, whether you have legal status depends on whether you have H-1B legal status. After August 3rd, you will not be in legal status.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Please let me know your opinions and valid suggestions regarding this. What I have to do. Shall I have to apply for H1-B extension or not . If I appy for H1-B extension, which company I have to take into consideration i.e. A or B. Now I have pay stubs with company B, But I have EAD with this. My H1-B visa is on Company A, But I don't have pay stubs.
