Dear Attorney/Members

I am on L2. I am working on L2 EAD.My husband is currently on L1A. He is looking for other job on H1B. If he will switch the job and his Visa will change from L1A to H1B then can I work on L2 EAD?

Please see below my detail

L2 - 01-Feb-2013

L2 EAD - 01-Sept-2012

I94 - 01-Feb-2013

Looking for your kind response. Help would be highly appreciated

Best Regards

A foreign national may not remain in L-2 status if her spouse changes status to H1B. The person may change to H-4 status, which does not generally allow for work authorization. Or, if the foreign national wishes to work, she would need to find another means of remaining in valid status (e.g. finding an employer to sponsor her for her own H1B.)
