Hi all, 

 

So here's my situation: I applied for OPT extension and waiting for response. Used the notice of action which automatically extends for 180 days to continue working and also renewed my driver's license (extended 180 days). Got an RFE and responded. Now I recently filed for AOS concurrently with new I-765 and others(same time I responded to the RFE) and I have biometrics appt soon but my 180 days is almost up meaning DL is also about to be expired. Question is 1) I'm unsure if I can renew my license or extend for additional 180 days with the new NOA for I-765 since its under a diff category. Would that be possible?; and 2) Is it also possible to continue working after the 180 days and does the new NOA for I-765 also extend that for additional 180days, and will working be considered legal or valid? 

 

Any thoughts or suggestions please? Thanks!

You would use the EAD you obtain from filing to adjust normally, some States allow you to renew your DL based on filing to adjust.

Your AOS based EAD is completely independent of the OPT which means your existing OPT validity doesn’t get extended by NOA1 of the AOS EAD. Your work after 180 days extended date and before receiving the new OPT card or AOS EAD is considered illegal.
