EAS card / Greencard. work for anyone??
I recently got my EAD card (yah), but I am doing my OPT right now using my OPT EAD card. So, right now I have 2 EAD cards. Am I suppose to give up my OPT one and instead, using the greencard (EAD) one?? Does this mean I could work for anyone I want? As many jobs as I want? Should I let my HR know so they can update it? On the notice letter, it say: “If you have a pending I-140/I-485, you may request to change employers if your I-185 has been pending for at least 180 days. And need to submit job offers”. If my employer updates my infor using my new EAD card, does it mean I need to submit my offer to USCIS? I am super confused.

if you give up your OPT and use the EAD through your green card then you can work anywhere you want I believe. but I would ask a lawyer since you already started using your EAD from OPT

If you use your GC EAD you will automatically lose your F1 benefits. I will advise you continue to use your opt ea

thank you guys! I called USCIS, the agent said it has my name on it and my infor, so it’s ok and comply normal. and, It’s ok to use both EAD card; if I want to find another part time job, obv, I need to use the GC EAD card. I will switch my EAD card once my OPT one expires. good lucky everyone!!
