Marriage after getting EAD

[parthan]

1. I am going to apply for file I485. I can file for EAD also along with it right? If not when (after 180 days?) ?

2. I am currently on H1 visa. I read in some websites that once I get EAD my H1 status will be terminated, is that right?

3. Once I get my EAD can I go back to my home country, get married and bring my spouce as dependent? (I fear that I loose my H1 status by getting an EAD, so I cannot bring my spouse as dependent.).

Thank you,
Parthan

You can file for EAD and AP along with it. And just applying for EAD does no invalidate your H1 it is using that EAD to work that does that.

If you are maintaining ur H1 status by working for H1 employer only, then u can bring ur spouse on H4.

But unless the dates are current at that time she will not be able to file for I485
