[kpnmani]

Hi,

I am working in L1B visa and my wife is working in L2 EAD and it is valid till Apr2014. Now we plan to apply H1B for myself and mywife. Incase if my H1 visa gets approved and my wife H1 visa gets rejected, Can my wife work on L2 EAD till Apr 2014? Please help me.

If a person in L-1 status changes status to H1B, h/er spouse would no longer be eligible for L-2 status, and the EAD would immediately become invalid.
