This is a question for a friend who is here on a journalists' visa (an I visa I believe it is called). If he were to get married to his USC girlfriend, would he still be able to work on the I visa while waiting for the EAD to arrive, provided the I visa remained valid during this time?

Many thanks

Yes he can work on his "I"Visa until it expires. Even if he get his EAD he can continue work thru his "I"visa if the sponsor is same. In case if he wanted to move to different employer then he need the sponsorship for his "I" visa at that time he needed a EAD other than that he can very well work for the same employer under his current visa. I hope this helps.

Thanks
