Hi Master,

I had SSN, Driver License and Bank Account in California when worked in US with L1 visa from Mar to June 2008 AND from Feb to Nov 2011. Could I get EAD (or other working permission) when I go to US with H4 visa in 2013 or 2014?
   
Please share if you have the same situation.

Thank you very much,
Susu.

Dear Susu,

H-4 visa holders are unfortunately not eligible to get EADs (for the moment – the immigration reform could possibly change that).

However, if you have an opportunity to work or intern in the U.S. and assuming you meet the legal requirements you could consider applying for your own work authorization (H-1b, E, J, etc.).

Best regards,

Florian
