Dear Sophia,
One of our employees has an H-4 visa and has a work permit document. It has been five months since he applied for his EAD, which expires next month. Is there a way to speed up this process? Will he have to stop working if he doesn’t receive his new EAD card before his old one expires?
Because it takes so long to get EAD cards, we are concerned about another of our employees, who has an L-2 visa with an EAD expiring early next year.
In addition, the H-4 visa officer wants to visit his family in India as it has been more than three years since his last visit. Can he and his family return to the US after four weeks?
