[grace_janke 0]

Hi Everyone,

I'm confused about my Employment Authorization expires Feb 17,2012, since I got 2years Greencard, expires Feb 2013 my question is... Do I need to renew my Employment Authorization?

As far as I know, once you get your green card, your EAD is actually already invalid. Your green card serves as your EAD/AP as well.

If you have a green card, you do not need the employment authorization any more. The green card IS your authorization for work.

you won't get one, you have a GC. The EAD is only good until you get your interview. the GC is for everything, working, travelling abroad. You are a legal resident of this country. that IS your work authorization.

what you need to do in the future is send the i751 for the removal of conditions. you have to remove conditions before the 2 year GC expires and you can send it 90 days before your 2 year GC expires. then immigration will send you a letter extending your residency for 1 year during the process of getting your 10 year GC.

you can go go to the forum of removing conditions for more information. the form you need to send is the i751 along with bonifide evidence of your marriage.

forget about the employement authorization.

Thank you for the information, "Aleful" I thought GC and EAD different application and also having different expiration that's why I'm wondering then about remove conditions for 2yrs, sound helps for me! I'll read more info from USCIS. Sound good! so won't spend more buck$$$ instead. I appreciate your reply.

Hi Everyone,

I'm confused about my Employment Authorization expires Feb 17,2012, since I got 2years Greencard, expires Feb 2013 my question is... Do I need to renew my Employment Authorization?

Is this an EAD card?

or

do you hold an H1-B visa?

Please tell us which visa you entered the USA on

and

the last set of paperwork (form numbers, please)

that keeps you in the USA.

TIA !

They are 'different' applications.

Most folk submit them together, when adjusting status. If you compare http://www.visajourney.com/timeline/profile.php?id=86696 with the Guides Section here - well, you can suss out 'where you are' in this Immigration Process.

OK - so you have a CURRENT greencard with an expiration date.

The EAD is useless for you after the greencard is in your hands.

Please disregard any further worries to renew your EAD card.

Good Luck !
