回複：請小白兔再看看，關於O1 和 EAD的抉擇when NIW is pending

I am in an O-1 status, and my I-485 is pending. AP received. I am not sure if I can answer all your questions, but here is what my employer lawyer told me. Unlike H-1B, O-1 does NOT allow a dual intent, therefore an alien in an O-1 status cannot apply for O-1 visa for the re-entry, but instead has to use AP, if the I-485 petition is pending. The lawyer also clearly stated that my O-1 status is alway valid as long as I work for the employer, regardless of whether an AP has been used or not. Also, I was told that I can even get an EAD and use the EAD to work for any employers other than the one sponsoring my O-1. Hope this helps.
