Automatic extension period for EADs

A reminder that on May 4, 2022, DHS announced a temporary rule that increases the automatic extension period for Employment Authorization Documents (EADs) from 180 days to 540 days. This means that certain EAD applicants who timely file applications (Form I-765) to renew their employment authorization will receive an automatic extension of up to 540 days starting on the day the current EAD expires.

Les recordamos que el 04 de mayo del 2022, el DHS anunció una regla temporal que aumenta el período de la extensión automática para tarjetas de autorización de empleo (EADs) de 180 a 540 días. Esto significa que ciertos solicitantes de permisos de trabajo que archivaron sus solicitudes (Forma I-765) para renovar sus permisos a tiempo, recibirán una extensión automática de hasta 540 días comenzando a partir de la fecha de vencimiento de su tarjeta.
