Does my wife have to apply for a new H-4 EAD if I move to a new H1B employer?

Answer

An H-4 EAD is tied to one’s spouse being in valid H1B status; it is not tied to any particular employer. A move to a different company by the H1B spouse ordinarily would have no direct impact on the spouse’s H-4 status or the EAD. (17.Jul.2017)
