Hello All,

 

I've completed my masters and got a job in one of the company here. I can work on the OPT crrently, but i'm planning to move to H4 so I can benefit the H4EAD. But, for applying for EAD I need to first get H4 nd then apply for EAD, this process can take about 6 months (3 for H4 COS and 3 for EAD). So, there will be a long break in my job.

I read somewhere that I can apply for H4 and EAD simultaniously. Is it possible? What are my options if not?

One more question, What if my h4 cos gets approved first and h4 ead later ? Can i work during the gap ?

H4 will get approved first and only after approval your EAD application will be processed and approved. You cannnot work without EAD approval.

COS will be approved first, without H4 approval they can't approve H4 EAD. 

No you cannot work during the gap.
