Gurus,

I recently got my 7th year h1 approved. I have also recently applied for EAD and am contemplating to apply for AP.

I have a few questions:

1. Once I get my EAD approved does that automatically mean
I switch over to EAD and dont use the 7th year h1. That is does that mean I have to use EAD and not h1. This is very important for
me because I am contemplating to marry and have been told that
if I am on h1 I can bring my gal ( i mean my wife to USA) after marriage and in EAD I cant and have to wait for 6 yrs to bring her( my would be wife is a beauty queen and I had to take a lot of pain to win her heart since many more suitors were after her, if I tell her that she has to wait for 6yrs she will drop me like a hot potato for sure!!!!!!)

2. My h1 stamp in passport has expired. I can get it stamped in India or use AP. If I use AP will it mean I have to go to EAD and
abandon h1( which I cant as my sweet heart will abnadon me
in that case).

I am thinking of this strategy get EAD and AP. Go to India and
get h1 visa stamped( incase if there is any issue come back on AP).

Gurus I seek your advice on this issue.

I never thought that green card can put spanner to my quest for the dream girl.

------- If you get EAD nobody forces you to use EAD, you can be on H1, one can have H1 and EAD at same time
and don’t use the 7th year h1. That is does that mean I have to use EAD and not h1. This is very important for
me because I am contemplating to marry and have been told that
if I am on h1 I can bring my gal ( i mean my wife to USA) after marriage and in EAD I cant and have to wait for 6 yrs to bring her( my would be wife is a beauty queen and I had to take a lot of pain to win her heart since many more suitors were after her, if I tell her that she has to wait for 6yrs she will drop me like a hot potato for sure!!!!!!)
------ Maintain H1 don’t use EAD and bring her on H4, once she reaches US file her I-485, EAD, AP before her H4 status expire and before your I-485 gets approved

2. My h1 stamp in passport has expired. I can get it stamped in India or use AP. If I use AP will it mean I have to go to EAD and
abandon h1(which I cant as my sweet heart will abandon me
in that case).
----- you can get H1 Visa stamped when you go out or can enter on AP, use of AP does NOT invalidate your H1 status if you continue working with the same employer who filed your latest H1, you can also extend H1 , don’t use EAD. Read:
