My husband was in L1A status and I have L2S status valid for several more months. His change of status to H1B was recently approved, while my change to H-4 status is still pending. Can I continue to work based on my L2S status?

Generally speaking, once the principal spouse is no longer in valid L1A status, the dependent spouse is no longer considered to be in valid L2S status. Therefore, it normally would not be permissible to work in this situation. (13.Apr.2022)
