Question details
1. Wanted to check if on an EAD one could work for 2 companies. One sponsoring the GC (Maybe part time) and other full time.
2. Updated FAQ: I have a question in similar line. Currently I am on derivative EAD. My spouse is the main applicant and I got my EAD thru her company. She still works for the same company.
We (me and my friend) have started a company in India some time back. Now, I want to start our new office in the US. Will there be any legal implications? What kind of company I can start here.. LLC or Inc? Please advise.
1. Theoretically, you can work for as many companies as you like on EAD. My concern would be the implication that you no longer have a full time job with the sponsoring company, which is a requirement for the green card.
2. Since you are on a derivative EAD, you have even more freedom than the primary applicant. Other than an S corporation (I think that requires green card under tax laws), you can form any kind of corporation (LLC, etc.), but do check on the State law.
I have had a very good experience on my Green Card process from the attorneys at immigration.com. My application process started off around 2007 and till date, all the time I have received friendly response from all the staff from this attorney(I have interacted with around 3 or 4 people during my green card process) Specifically, I want to highlight Sheena Gill on her approach, care and attention she shows. My green card process had some hiccups in the form of I140 RFE and she did a great job on responding to that RFE. If not her, I may have been in trouble. She spent extra effort in understanding the reason of RFE and then suggested me to bring various evidence, did excellent job in compiling them and writing up a detailed RFE response. I was also very impressed, when Sheena tried tell me that my I485 was approved. She tried to call me, but due to mobile signal issues, I was not reachable. She dug out my home phone number and contacted my spouse to find out where I am. In comparison, others would have just left a voice mail and could have waited until I call them back. Apart from the Green Card process, I have received tips and help on other USCIS related matters from all the team at immigration.com, with out making me feel that they are doing favor. I have recommended these attorneys to few of my friends and will keep doing that in future.
