mswethakeerthi Posted February 19, 2015 Report Share Posted February 19, 2015 Hi I am on F1 and I am doing my Masters in Charlotte. This is my last semester and I have started applying for jobs. My husband has an approved I-140. Now with all this new H4-EAD rule coming up, I am very much confused about the visa status I should have. Is it better to be on F1 and work on OPT or to change my status to H4 and apply for H4-EAD? Please suggest me regarding this. Would you also please let me know all the advantages and disadvantages of H4-EAD? Thanks in Advance! Link to comment
JoeF Posted February 19, 2015 Report Share Posted February 19, 2015 The H4-EAD rules are not finalized. Don't depend on that happening in time. Link to comment
rahul412 Posted February 19, 2015 Report Share Posted February 19, 2015 For now go for OPT bcos no one knows when that EAD rule gets published. You can file COS to H4 at any time later. What will you do if the EAD rule gets delayed?? Link to comment

ashuneel Posted February 20, 2015 Report Share Posted February 20, 2015 work on OPT now. You can always file H-1 while on OPT.When the H4 EAD becomes available change status to H4 and apply for H4-EAD Link to comment
