Hi Peter, thank you for taking time to help us.
I already have my EAD and just waiting for my green card to be issued. I was expecting my priority date to be current this month however USCIS suddenly had a retrogression back to Jan 2017 plus the covid-19 outbreak so I figure it will probably take more time for them to issue my green card. For the meantime, I can work with my EAD, however due to covid-19, I learned that my project will be cut by end of the month. So I will be unemployed. My question is will I be able to work for another company using my EAD even if it was sponsored by my current company?
- proberts 7y agoAs a general rule yes, you can work for another company on your EAD, but you should consult with an attorney regarding the continued viability of your green card application.
- nina_c 7y agoThank you Peter. My EAD will expire on Sept this year. We have filed for an extension since we don't know when will my green card be issued. Another question is, will my unemployment for a period of time affect the processing of my EAD/Green Card?
- proberts 7y agoIt won't impact the issuance of your EAD and it shouldn't impact the issuance of your green card as long as you are employed by the time of your green card interview (but the facts do matter regarding the latter issue and I don't have all of them).
