Re: employment authorization card
As long as you are maintaining your L2 status, you could submit an application for an employment authorization document (I-765).
You mentioned that you would be traveling. Your EAD has no bearing on your ability to travel. As long as you have a valid L2 visa stamp, you do not need your EAD card to re-enter the United States.
The purpose of the EAD is solely to grant you authorization to work.
