EAD for dependent child after 18yrs age on L2

[SAP_fan]

Hello,

I am on L-1A visa which is valid till July 2021 and this is true for my wife and son on L2 visa.

I just got my I-140 approval under EB-1c (multinational manager) category which was filed on 20-Oct-2017. My priority date is not yet current.

here are my questions:

1.  Can my son (19 yrs old now) apply for EAD along with my I-765 ad I-485 when my priority date is current?

2. Is there any way my son can apply for SSN now and apply for internships or on-campus jobs on L2 visa?

3. If answer to above questions are No, then when can he?

Thanks for responses and help in advance.

1. Yes.

2. L2 children are not eligible for an EAD.

3. See 1.

I am sure your filing involved a Lawyer and he may be able to clarify many of your questions.

Hi pontevecchio,

Your response is confusing. For question number 1 you said yes that my son can apply for EAD and for 2 you contradicted saying no. 

Can you please clarify?

I understood his post just fine:

When an I-485 is filed for the child it is possible to file for an EAD, based on the I-485, as well.

It is NOT possible to get an EAD for a child based on the L2 status.

Different basis for the EAD.

Thank you JoeF. The response is clear now.
