L2 Visa Query.

[trehan]

Hi,
My wife have an L1 visa and I am planning to apply for L2 visa as her dependent. I have a good job here in India and plan to leave it and then apply for EAD and find a job there in US.

My Questions are:

1) Is it difficult to get L2 Visa as dependent husband (as compared to dependent wife) and what are the questions I can expect during the interview.

2) How long it takes for the EAD to come. Does it get rejected also?

3) Can I apply for EAD from India itself once I get L2 visa?

4) If it takes long for the issue of EAD then can I apply it in US and come back for 2-3 months and continue my job here in India and then go back once it's issued.

5) Is it difficult to find Software engineering jobs on L2 Visa? I am leaving a very good job here just on the assumption that I will not be rejected just because I have an L2 visa.

Thanks a lot for your Help.

Regards.

No difference.
2) How long it takes for the EAD to come. Does it get rejected also?
2 to 3 months. Very less likely to be rejected if all necessary documents are provided.
3) Can I apply for EAD from India itself once I get L2 visa?
No, you need to be present in the US in L2 status.
4) If it takes long for the issue of EAD then can I apply it in US and come back for 2-3 months and continue my job here in India and then go back once it's issued.
That is possible, but it is also possible the they will reject it because you are not present in the US at the time the process the application.

5) Is it difficult to find Software engineering jobs on L2 Visa? I am leaving a very good job here just on the assumption that I will not be rejected just because I have an L2 visa.
That is difficult to predict.
Thanks a lot for your Help.
