L2 - EAD based on I129 extension

Hi,

I have a different situation.

my L1 visa/I94 is getting expired by Dec 2010. But my spouse got a I-94 which is valid in Dec 2012. He applied a EAD and got one with validity upto my Visa/I-94 last date which is Dec 2010.

Now my employer is filing for my I129 extension. I am planning to apply for his EAD renewal once my I-129 petition is approved.

I am bit confused with I-539 form.

1. If his I-94 is already valid till 2012, do I need to apply for I-539 or L2 extension ?

2. Once my I129 is approved, can he apply for EAD renewal based on the new I129 date and his I-94 date?

Right now, my employer is processing only my documents .
Will it be ok or I need to ask them to file docs for my spouse also?

1. If his I-94 is already valid till 2012, do I need to apply for I-539 or L2 extension ?
>>> No. Extension of status can be filed only 6 months prior to the I-94 expiry date. You don;t have to file the extension now.

2. Once my I129 is approved, can he apply for EAD renewal based on the new I129 date and his I-94 date?
>>> Yes.

Right now, my employer is processing only my documents .
Will it be ok or I need to ask them to file docs for my spouse also?
>> That is okay. You don;t need to file the extension for your spouse now.
