Hi,

My fiance has a job offer and they would like her to start on March 1. We already told the employer that we have a GC interview on March 15th and there is a slight chance that she may get her EAD before the 15th. My question is if she does not receive her EAD before the interview, can she start working right after the interivew is approved? Thank you for your help.

IF the EAD does not arrive before your interview, maybe you can ask the person who is interviewing you this question and tell them the reason why (it is a really good job offer and do not want to lose it) and hopefully that will get them to stamp his passport and this will enable him to work.

I am sure his to-be employer would want to see proof of ability of employment before he lets him work and the stamp on the passport should be good enough till he gets the green card.

good luck on the interview and I hope the EAD comes before March

Hi,

Your fiance cannot work without work authorization. Thus, she will need either the EAD or a GC stamp in her passport (same effect as the actual GC) in order to work. Without one of these, she cannot. That is, if she does not receive her EAD, or if she does not get the stamp at the interview, she cannot work.

They're not giving out stamps as often as they used to, but I would do as hanster recommends...bring the offer letter to the interview and explain the situation. Worth a shot.
