Is EAD essential?

Hi

We had our AOS interview back in October and I received my green card back then too. Last week I received my EAD card which is valid from September 2006 to September 2007.

I've not worked since I've been here and have no plans to. Do I have to get my EAD card renewed or can I just let it run out?

Seems pointless to pay another $260 to renew it unless I have to. I wasn't sure if it made up part of the green card and the two had to run concurrently.

Thanks

Helen
