has anyone had their NIW green denied and then lost their EAD card?
they say you should not just rely on your EAD card if your i-140 has NOT been approved.
Does anyone know of an instance of the NIW being denied and then the EAD being revoked? How much time does the person have to leave the country?

they havent denied mine. im in o1 visa but thinking about switching to a better job using EAD card. As an NIW petitioner, im not connected to a specific employer. But i ask if it’s too risky to leave my o1 status to rely only on EAD if the i140 has not been approved

That is good news. 😊
I applied for NIW-EB2. I-140 is approved.
Waiting for the I-485 approval.
It’s a very good option for those who don't have a sponsor.

@Ana Sampaio please what is criteria to qualify for NIW-EB2 category. can a registered Nurse with bachelor degree qualify? is the NIW-EB2 attached to a specific profession or anyone can qualify? please help me understand. thank you

@Kim F, I think you are qualified.
I applied to it with a lawyer.
I will share the link with the criteria.
I am happy to share any information you need. My field is engineering.
It also exists NIW for EB-1 and EB-3.
I would recommend reaching out to a lawyer because they can see what’s more appropriate for you.

what about the new employer file the I-129 on your O1 visa for the moment?
T BAug 26, 2022
i thought about it but I prefer to use the EAD and start as soon as possible.

I personally work and completely rely on niw ead card from couple of months till now (recently received an rfe). I hold no other visa. If you’re a risk taker and want to move for a better job that will be your call as nothing is guarantee, once NIW is denied you can’t use the ead card. Now, if you want to be in the safe side you have to hold your current status till you hear the NIW decision. Can consult with your attorney to evaluate how strong is your profile to take your decision.
