Hi,
My husband accompanied me on a J-2 visa and got his first EAD last year without problems. Because of slow bureaucracy, our DS-2019s weren't extended in time, that's why he submitted his application for his new EAD about 2 weeks later then expected. So, now his current EAD may expire before he gets his new one (by about 2-3 weeks, hoping it will take 90 days at most and not longer). We understand that he must not work during that time and can be on unpaid leave. However, he has employment based health insurance. Will he not be covered during that time or will he be able to keep it while on unpaid leave?
Thank you very much in advance for any help.
