这个应该是绝对利好啊!DHS说在几个月内就可以出台相关细节.
Work Authorization for Spouses of Certain H-1Bs
H-4 nonimmigrants whose H-1B spouses have started the employment-based
permanent residence process could be eligible to apply for work
authorization under DHS's plan, provided that the principal spouse has
been in the United States as an H-1B for a minimum period of time.
Though the agency has not provided specific details, the proposed change
may mean that H-4s could become eligible for work authorization after a
labor certification or immigrant worker petition has been filed on behalf
of the H-1B spouse. Currently, an H-4 spouse can apply for work
authorization only if he or she is the beneficiary of a pending
application for adjustment of status – the last stage of the permanent
residence process.

记得去年上半年就提过，没了下文。这次又提出来，难说。
另外，这个也不是所有H1b的配偶都行，我记得是要H1B满6年以后，AC21 kicks in的时候
H4才可以申请work permit的。不是所有的H4 spouse都可以立即得到work permit的。

Provide work authorization for spouses of certain H-1B holders.
This proposed change to the current DHS regulation would allow certain
spouses of H-1B visa holders to legally work while their visa holder spouse
waits for his or her adjustment of status application to be adjudicated.
Specifically, employment will be authorized for H-4 dependent spouses of
principal H-1B visa holders who have begun the process of seeking lawful
permanent resident status through employment after meeting a minimum period
of H-1B status in the U.S. This effort will help retain talented
professionals who are valued by U.S. employers and who seek to contribute to
our economy. |
