Legal Question in Immigration Law in New Jersey

H-1 and EAD

Hi,

Does applying for EAD invalidates H-1 or invalidation occurs from only using. I guess my question is whether one can use H-1 visa even if he has AP(advance Parole) and EAD (employment authorization document)

Thanks

Re: H-1 and EAD

Having H-1B status authorizes you to work for a specific employer. It sounds like you are applying for adjustment of status to become a lawful permanent resident.

H-1B status is a "dual intent" status, which means that you can pursue permanent status without jeopardizing your H-1B status.

If you need further clarification, you should speak to an attorney to review your entire situation.
