New at Immiva: We Now Help with H-4 EAD Applications

What Is an H-4 EAD, and Who Can Apply?

If you’re in the U.S. on an H-4 visa (typically as a spouse or a kid of an H-1B visa holder), you may be eligible to apply for an EAD—short for Employment Authorization Document. This is your legal ticket to work in the U.S., start a business, or freelance.

But here’s the catch: Not everyone on an H-4 can get one. You’re only eligible if your H-1B spouse has either an approved I-140 (green card petition) or has extended their H-1B status beyond six years under AC21. Sound confusing? Yeah, we thought so too. That’s why we’ve made the whole thing easier with Immiva.

If you’re not sure what an H-4 visa is or if it applies to you, check out our H-4 Visa Guide for H-1B Spouses and Dependents for a full breakdown.

Before this update, we’ve been helping hundreds of students and J-2 visa holders apply for work permits with confidence. Our platform already supports OPT (Optional Practical Training) for F-1 students and J-2 EADs for spouses of J-1 exchange visitors. If you’ve used Immiva for one of those, you’ll feel right at home applying for your H-4 EAD. Same simple, step-by-step experience—now for even more visa categories.

Why H-4 EAD Applications Are So Stressful

Let’s be honest—the paperwork is a nightmare. The I-765 form (what you fill out for the EAD) has pages of questions, USCIS instructions that read like legal textbooks, and a laundry list of documents to attach. Miss one detail, and your application might get delayed or rejected. And don’t get us started on trying to find a lawyer who doesn’t charge you an arm and a leg for it.
