Got my EAD

[tired]

Hi,
I just received my EAD card. I am currently on H-1 B and my I-485 is pending since Oct 2008.
I was wondering if I can work for a second company on a part time basis. Is it legal? What are the things that I need to be careful about.
Thanks a lot

You will work for both on EAD and become a parolee. You can't be on H1b if you do it.

In case of a 485 denial, you become out of status immediately.

Thanks as always for your response. I rather wait than take such a risk.

When I check the USCIS web site for the status of my EAD, it still says "Case Pending...." even though I received the EAD card in mail last week. I am worried I wont know if they have sent me anything else and it got 'lost in mail'...
Any thoughts on this??
