Should I wait to apply for my EAD renewal and risk my job?

Hi everybody,

I'm the spouse of a E2 visa holder and my EAD is about to expire in 3 months. It's always tied to the expiration date of my I-94, which expires in 3 months.

Fortunately we're traveling in December, which will extend my I-94 for another 2 years. Unfortunately, it doesn't make sense to submit the EAD renewal now, because it'll just be valid until my current I-94 expires, which is in 3 months.

On the other hand, if I wait until after I return from my travels and send my EAD application with the new I-94, I'll be without a work permit until I receive my renewed EAD. It can take up to 90 days to get the EAD, so I wouldn't be able to work and lose my day job.

Has anybody been in the same situation than me and what did you do?

In North Carolina since 2005
