aos renewal?
Hi all. I'm going crazy over here waiting for my EAD. PD March 4, marriage based AOS. Raised SR / ER almost a month ago and no news. Zero movement on my case.

I have a question: I previously held an EAD as I was doing OPT with my F1. Then, while my EAD was still valid, I filed for AOS. My OPT EAD expired late May and I haven't been able to work since.

Now, my attorney told me that I couldn't "extend" my EAD while I changed status, unlike what happens when you change from an F1 to, say, and H1B where you can still work even though your EAD has expired and until you receive your H1B.

My question is: is this true? Or could I have been working all this time? (I have reasons to doubt what my lawyer told me).

Thanks for your input!
