AOS , EAD and AP

[Sksan 0]

Hello 

we are almost thru our process and our visa interview is in a few weeks.

Given the type of work I do , I gave the curtosey of informing my employer my plans .  They are very supportive and would like me to continue to work for them to help bridge the transition .  I am currently employed in Canada and would move to the US in August . At this point I will apply for my AOS and EAD and AP in the US.

My question is whether or not I can continue to still be employed by my Canadian company and be in the US living and having applied for my change of status? I know it can take up to 90 days for work and travel authorization.

Im unsure of what the best way to do this and if it's possible to still work during this time of waiting for the EAD even if from Canada .

any advice ?

thanks

You would for sure need the AP document.

Thanks , yes I agree I would need the ap doc if I was travelling back to Canada's , but I have the ability to work out of a home office and service my US customers  .

i guess the question is can i continue to be employed by my Canadian company , even though my EAD and AP are not final 

.

Do you serve US customers now? Is the company a Canadian or American company? Will you continued to be paid in Canadian dollars?

Gray area if paid in Canadian dollars into a Canadian account

Most likely will continue to earn Canadian dollars into Canadian account .  Once US work authorization is approved then switch to American site . Company is global wth sites in Canadian and US . 

Based on info from lawyer , should be ok but will need to pay Canadian taxes , which I will have to regardless .

still looking into best course of action
