filling for EAD

[Misterno7]

This may be a stupid question, but here is the situtation. If someone who is currently in the states (has student F1 visa) is married to a US citizen, can he apply for EAD based on the marriage to a US citizen with no other applications requred, documents, etc?
I'm aksing because filling I-485 for a green card along with EAD application is the right way to go but we are not ready to do it maybe for another 2 months (some hassle about documentation , sponsor etc..)

F1 status and marriage alone are not sufficient legal basis for applying for an EAD. So the answer is "no."
