After Expiration of H4 EAD date, Can I continue Work for Some Days?

Many people ask the question if they can keep working based on H4 EAD extension receipt even after current one has expired.

You cannot work after expiration of your H4 EAD card validity. You have to stop working the same day the H4 EAD expires.

There are interim EADs available for many types of work permits given by USCIS but H4 EAD and L2 EAD are not part of it. Interim EAD is given to help the continued employment when USCIS is taking time to approve the EAD renewal application.

Can I work if H4 EAD Renewal is in process?

You cannot work if your existing H4 EAD card has expired and renewal is in process. You cannot remain on paid or un-paid leave either. Ideally, the job should be terminated by employer and you can rejoin once your get H4 EAD work permit.

Many attorney recommend that your employer terminate your employment and I-9 to avoid un-necessary compliance issues later.

Employer has to fill form I-9 to report legal employment to government and IRS and hence cannot keep you on payroll.

It is also for your own benefit to stop working as the status issues might crop up at the time of green card processing, which may hurt more than the couple of days or a month’s salary now.

You can talk to your employer and attorney to check if they are okay with letting you go on leave of absence while your EAD card renewal is pending.

Automatic 180 Day EAD Extension Categories

USCIS only allows some EAD categories to keep working even after EAD expiry if you have filed the extension before the current EAD approval expires.

H4 EAD category is C(26) and it is not part of the automatic EAD extension allowed list: A03, A05, A07, A08, A10, C08, C09, C10, C16, C20, C22, C24, C31 and A12 or C19.
