query on L2 B Visa + EAD

[Tripat Kaur]

Hi All,

I have few questions on EAD.

1. I came to US on L2B dependent VISA in January, 2017. Then I filed EAD document which is valid for 2 years from now but on the card there is a statement " NOT VALID FOR REENTRY TO U.S." So, what does this statement exactly mean ?
2. Has this document changed my Visa status on I-94 or I am still on L2 B ?
3. I will be leaving for India in September, 2017 for a month, so using this EAD and on L2B (if still applicable), will I be allowed to re-enter the States and work again ?
4. If this document has changed my status, do I need to fill/file any travel related document before leaving or changed my EAD to advanced EAD (since I have heard about advanced PAROLE but sure not about it) ?

Regards
Tripat Kaur

1. That means you can't use that EAD for reentering the US. You still need to have valid L2 visa stamp.
2. Still on L2.
3. I don't see a problem.
4. N/A
