I am on H-4 and recently got an approved I-140. Can I use that to apply for an EAD?

Answer

You cannot apply for an H-4 EAD based on your own approved I-140. If your spouse has an approved I-140, you can use that to apply for an H-4 EAD. Or, once your priority date is current, if you file your I-485 application, you may then also apply for an EAD based on the I-485. (13.Feb.2024)
