if you have a pending i485, you'll be in authorized stay and should not accrue any unlawful presence. I will suggest you check on uscis policies to confirm again, however I felt I saw that before

you will be authorized stay once you file I 485 same with us we did and obtained EAd after that

@faryal faisal did your visa also expire while waiting for i-485 to finalize? how long did it take for you to obtain EAD after you submitted your i-485?

@adam smith yes, our visa expired, it took 3 months after submitting the application

@faryal faisal that is great! did you start using it right away or did you wait until you received the Green Card? were you on OPT?

@faryal faisal - so after filing I-485 can stay in US but can’t work until revive EAD ? is there any additional applications need to file between getting EAD ?

yes travel permit 131

@adam smith I was on b1/b2 I have started working right away

@faryal faisal that is amazing! do you know whay happens if you get RFE during AOS? do you need to leave immediately?

no RFe is for the evidence you need to provide to uscis. it’s not about leaving the country
