I have nothing against folks on H4 EAD but lately I am seeing companies like Infosys, TCL, Cognizant who have contracted with Google, Apple and many big techs are favoring people on H4 EAD instead of eligible US citizens.

How long does it take to process H4 EAD for someone on H1B? Wife might get laid off, we want to plan on contingencies.

Hi Blind community, What's the current wait times to get an H4 visa appointment? Do I need to be in the USA to apply for an EAD card or can my spouse apply from the USA as well? Also, once you apply for H4 EAD how much time does it take?
Is it possible to transfer from L2 EAD to H4 EAD while retaining the work authorization?

GF is on her last attempt of h1b next year. If it doesn't get picked up then we can marry so that she has the working status. What's the process like to get h4 ead? Do I need to be working with the same company from which I got i140 approved? How long after getting married is the h4 ead given?
I have my I-140 approved with my current employer (PD - Dec 2021). My wife is on H4 visa and is able to work on H4 EAD right now.
