H4 EAD & change of employer

[Raj]

Hi,
I have already I-140 approved from my current employer. So my wife is eligible for H4-EAD.
I'm on my H1B extension beyond the 6 year limit.
If I change my employer, will my Wife's EAD still be Valid ?

Thanks for your prompt response.

Probably yes because you are beneficiary of both provisions I 140 or ac21. Having said that, if the i140 is cancelled before transfer then both and your wife might fall out of status. If you want a specific consultation or help on your case, please call 510 7425887

Can you Pls clarify the following -

1. what you mean by i140 cancelled ?
2. what happens if the employer revokes i140. but i'm still working with the new employer on H1B.
3. what happens if USCIS revokes i-140.

Thanks
Raj

1. I actually mean revoked
2. Well it will probably follow the same rule as under AC 21. It will be valid until it was granted and no more extension.

But it will be hard to ****yze until it happens. Since the law is new, we don't have any precedence to ****yze.
