Lost EAD and also time to renew
Hi guys, I am hoping you can help me out with this. I lost my EAD card but it’s also time to renew it because it expires soon. Can I submit an application for renewal and application for replacement at the same time? Thanks!

L2 EAD Wait Times - Vermont SC
Hi all,
I'm curious if anyone else is in a similar position to me or maybe has just received their card and can tell me their receipt notice date?
I applied for renewal exactly six months prior to expiry, receipt date 1/15. My card expires 7/21.I've looked at the processing times online but does anyone have any real examples out there? Are Vermont going quickly or slowly?
My L2 is due for renewal 12/21/21. I know that when my EAD gets here it will only be valid until that date, so before it even expires this time around I will be applying for an extension, pretty much immediately after it's arrival - best case scenario. Worst case scenario it doesn't arrive by July, and I am out of work twice, once in July and once in December if things are going slowly.
I will be applying in country for my L2 extension, which I understand is taking quite a long time at the moment? Can I apply for the EAD concurrently? Will they be approved together?
Feeling hopeless currently at the thought of a long period of time where I'm not very employable!
Good luck to everyone else out there who's waiting on their card!

JOB change on EAD after i-485 pending for 180 days
Hi, Please advise on my situation below.
My client company is offering me a position that is one level up than what I am currently doing with them on contract (Working onsite with client).
I am a product engineer and the position offered is for a lead engineer role. Position offered is in the same engineering department (as I am in today) with similar job duties (more duties / responsibilities than today).
What shall I consider before making this switch?
Do I have to inform USCIS of the intent to change job and get some approval?? before changing job?
How this job change can negatively affect my 1-485 approval?
I have valid EAD and i-485 has been pending for more that 180 days. I will be moving from H1B to using EAD with this JOB change

I765 1st renew expedite request (successfully)
Having I-485 case must be reviewed after interview was completed is a nightmare. But few good things gained (myself)
1) Amended tax year 2019 from ITIN to SSN >>filed taxes deductible all stimulus relief funds 1, 2 and possibly.
2) New EAD under new legal name
3) Amended SSN
EAD expiry 04/12/2021, expedite 02/20/21 approved 03/12/21. reason expedited>>name change and employer required name matches SSN and Passport
AP expiry 08/28/2021
This thread(EAD) wouldn’t be here if approx. 3-4 months is for the processing time of I-485 and all other PR cases.
May luck n successful be with you all.

Combo Card - I765 delay - what next before expiry?
Hi all
I think many of you are frustrated with EAD Delays. i am on the same boat.
Need your advice. My EAD expires on 3/23/2021.
I have the receipt notice and my case says fingerprints updated.
My employers have been chasing for new EAD, if not i will be in LOP with no medical beenfits and eventually loose the job.
In this scenario, can i expedite the EAD? Please advise
