I think it depends on the officer. My EAD wasn't taken during interview, but I heard cases where their EADs were taken during interview. I think it's gonna be a good idea if you make a copy of your EAD, so you'll have a proof for your new job in case the officer takes your EAD.

If they approve you there and then and want to take your EAD, explain that you are starting a new job that afternoon and that ask for an I-551 stamp to be put in your passport?

Wow I read that wrong, my bad :( I would suggest having a couple copies of your EAD for "just in case" situations.

:thumbs: I have seen posts where the beneficiary had to give up the EAD. If approved you can request a stamp in the passport which should satisfy the employer.

We had our AOS interview last Tuesday, Feb 17 and the adjudicator took my EAD ID. He however, put a I-551 stamp on my passport which is valid for 1 month. He said that I can use that to show proof that I am eligible to work anywhere in the US while waiting for my actual GC.

Somewhere near the beginning of our interviewer asked if I was working or staying at home, I told him that I was still at home as I hadn't found work yet, then asked my hubby where he worked, apart from passing him a photocopy we had made of my EAD, it went into our file infront of him and I never saw it again. he said at the end after he approved me that if I do find work before the GC comes through to make an infopass to get proof that I can work.
