It specifically does not include employment authorization for other H-4 dependents, i.e. children of H-1B visa holders. This follows similar benefits for L-2 spouses of L-1A and L-1B visa holders.<br /><br />I do not know nor understand why H-4 children in high school and college / university cannot also be eligible for employment authorization.<br /><br />Since the proposed rule is in a 60 day comment period, it should be possible to submit a change to include employment authorization for all H-4 dependents of applicable H-1B visa holders as a comment for the DHS to review.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2595878755567407100.post-22919436957716313582014-05-20T12:21:46.704-07:002014-05-20T12:21:46.704-07:00You are talking about spouse of H-1B Visa holder w...You are talking about spouse of H-1B Visa holder which is H-4, How about the kids of H-1B holder which is also H-4 can get the employment authorization?<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2595878755567407100.post-57252465287107834302014-05-19T18:09:40.895-07:002014-05-19T18:09:40.895-07:00Very helpful information/ excellent comment.Very helpful information/ excellent comment.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2595878755567407100.post-90824908807250401872014-05-19T15:02:54.107-07:002014-05-19T15:02:54.107-07:00Regarding the current status of the proposed rule ...Regarding the current status of the proposed rule for H-4 spouse employment authorization. This was first submitted by the DHS to the White House Office of Management and Budget (OMB) in December 2012 -- yes, 17 months ago! Typically the OMB approves a proposed rule for publishing in the Federal Register in ~ 60 - 90 days. Now 17 months later, the OMB has finally published the proposed rule in the Federal Register for the 60 day comment period (albeit the rule has been revised to be more flexible than when initially submitted by the DHS). The next steps are the noted 60 day comment period, then the proposed rule goes back to the DHS for review of the comments and resubmitting to the OMB for approval as a final rule, and then with OMB approval it gets published in the Federal Register as a final rule and goes into effect. These steps will likely take another +/- 150 days, so it is still a few months before the rule could go into effect.<br /><br />Regarding the restrictions related to the H-1B visa, there is nothing in the proposed rule that is specific to STEM. Any H-4 spouse where the H-1B visa holder has an approved I-140 petition or has been granted an extension H-1B visa beyond the initial 6 years (based on meeting the applicable requirements) would be eligible for employment authorization.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2595878755567407100.post-39167156744224695062014-05-18T12:08:24.773-07:002014-05-18T12:08:24.773-07:00Of course I did, for my first question, the teache...Of course I did, for my first question, the teacher has an approved I-140 and his pd is almost current now, I just don't have an idea if it's considered within the STEM and it's not really clear it it's just for stem jobs. For the second question, I just missed one information, though there is a 7th year extension, LC and I-140 should have been approved, so even there was an extension of visa but no lc approval yet, it suggests that EAD won't be granted.I am gathering some informations here not just for one person but for some with different situations of cases, thank you though for your comment.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2595878755567407100.post-80995403105395903392014-05-18T07:34:31.769-07:002014-05-18T07:34:31.769-07:00I think the verbiage is pretty straight forward.

To be specific, do you think spouses of special education teachers are qualified? And one thing more, how about H1bs with 7th year extension but without approved PERM because it was denied but visa was just extended just because it was appealed and pending? Your insights are very much appreciated, Thank you.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2595878755567407100.post-86957754271344341542014-05-17T10:33:51.264-07:002014-05-17T10:33:51.264-07:00amazon,
