H1toH4EADEarliestprocessingtime

Hi,

I’m currently on H1.

If I apply for COS to H4 EAD, how long does it take approx.

What can be the earliest date to receive it.

And if I apply for H4 and EAD Simultaneously, do i need to stop my current job after I get my H4 and till Ead is approved?

Please provide your inputs.

Thank you.

COS to H-4 would take 2-6 months. You can look at current processing time on USCIS site for your service center. COS is form I-539.

They can be applied in parallel and should be approved together. However, if COS is approved and EAD is not, then you need to stop working until EAD gets approved.

thank you for quick response.

I have an another question now.

If I apply for h1 to h4 EAD transfer now and few days later if my husband does h1 transfer to different employer
then during his transfer if he does premium can i again apply for my h4 and ead along with that application.

When my 1st application is still in process, can I do the second ?
or any way i can withdraw my 1st (when its in process) and apply for second.

Appreciate your inputs.

Thank you.
