The facts of my case are as follows:
1. I have been working for my current employer Company V from 2007. In 2008, Company V started H1B and GC. I signed an agreement with Company V. The costs of H1B and GC PERM and I-140 were paid by Company V.
2. My current H1B is valid to Sept 2014.
3. By the end of January 2012, I filed I-485/EAD/AP. EAD/AP are approved in March. The costs of I-485/EAD/AP are paid by myself.
Yesterday, Company V asked me to send a copy of my EAD to them. I told them I want to maintain H1-B and do not want to EAD because H1-B status has lots of advantages. Therefore, I did not send them a copy of my EAD.
Company V just replied: When we started the green card process, you signed an agreement that you would apply for and maintain your EAD card as part of the AOS process. Since you have applied for your AOS and received your EAD card it means that you are now working on the EAD card. The fact that you have not given us a copy doesn’t matter in that regard.
I will ask the copy of the agreement. My questions are:
A. If there are such wordings in the agreement about EAD/AOS,
1. Whether I am actually working on EAD even if Company V has no copy of my EAD? In other words, my EAD is activated automatically?
2. Whether I can ask Company V to maintain H1-B?
B. If there are not such wordings in the agreement about EAD/AOS,
1. Whether Company V can still put me as EAD status just because I got EAD, even if Company V has no copy of my EAD?
2. If B-1 is true, what I can do to maintain H1-B?
