What if My EAD Has Expired or Will Expire Before I Receive My Green Card?
For applicant's who apply for and obtain an EAD while their Adjustment of Status petition is pending, the EAD may expire before the green card is issued. In these cases, it is important to apply for a new EAD. Keep in mind that it will take a minimum of 90 days to process your EAD application so it is important to file the new I-765 well in advance of the expiration date of the current EAD.
The USCIS will issue a new EAD based on your still pending Adjustment of Status petition.
