H4 EAD based on filed PERM

[vineet.saju]

Hi,

 

Can someone tell me if I can file for a H4 EAD for my spouse based on a filed PERM application (not approved) and a approved H1-b extension beyond 6 years?

 

My first H1-b was approved Oct 2010 and I now have an approval valid till Oct 2017

 

Thank you

Vineet

If your H1B was extended beyond 6 years due to decision pending with USCIS for more than a year then your spouse can file for EAD.
