(Financial Express)H-4 spouses, green card hopefuls risk losing jobs as US ends automatic work permit extensions

Summary
On October 14, 2026, the US Department of Homeland Security (DHS) finalized a rule eliminating automatic extensions of up to 540 days for Employment Authorization Documents (EADs). For most renewal applications filed on or after October 30, 2025, foreign nationals can no longer continue working beyond their EAD expiration date without USCIS approval. The government argues that the change is necessary to strengthen eligibility verification and security screening before extending work authorization.
However, significant processing delays raise concerns about employment disruptions. As of June 2026, more than 432,000 EAD renewal applications had been pending for over six months. The policy could particularly affect H-4 visa spouses, green card applicants, and certain asylum seekers, while creating staffing shortages and compliance challenges for employers. Although a federal court has temporarily blocked enforcement against certain plaintiffs challenging the rule, the injunction does not apply nationwide.
