JoeF Posted July 6, 2023 Report Share Posted July 6, 2023 No. Once you use the EAD you are no longer on H1. Quote Link to comment
MyDearLeo2 Posted July 7, 2023 Author Report Share Posted July 7, 2023 Hi Experts, I had checked with one of an immigration attorney and he mentioned that I can use H1B for my primary job and EAD for secondary. Is that true as I did not find any documentation or rules on USCIS site. Thanks. Quote Link to comment
Attorney_10 Posted July 10, 2023 Report Share Posted July 10, 2023 Generally, when an individual in H1B nonimmigrant status starts using an EAD, the individual will lose their H1B status. However, an individual can typically work for multiple employers using an EAD. Due to the potential consequences of losing H1B status while an I-485 application is pending, it is advisable to speak with an experienced U.S. immigration attorney before taking any specific action.
