H4 EAD Update – February 22nd, 2018 update – DHS has 90 DAYS to update court

02/22/2018: U.S. Court of Appeals in DC Issued an Order Sustaining Trump Administration Motion for Abeyance of H-4 EAD Rescission Process Instead of Court Ruling in Pending Lawsuit

  • The Wise Grad reports that the federal appeals court issued a decision granting the motion for abeyance pending H-4 EAD rescission rule making and order the Trump Administration to report the court every 90 days progress of the rule making. The Court thus denied the union's motion to reschedule the hearing to decide the case as soon as possible. Accordingly, for now, the decision has given a good news, albeit temporary, for H-4 EAD stakeholders for a substantial prolonged period time.
  • What does this mean to immigration stakeholders? H-4 spouses have extended period of time to apply for new H-4 EADs and extension of current H-4 EAD for a while without fear of court's imminent decision against the H-4 EAD rule. Additionally, this may somewhat unload potential FY 2019 H-1B cap petition volume in that the number of H-4 EADs may keep staying in H-4 EAD instead of rushing to file change of status from H-4 to H-1B in April 1, 2018. We previously predicted that the volume of H-1B cap applications in this cap season may arise substantially because of H-4 EADs applying for change of status to H-1B in part as well as Trump Administration's plan to reform the H-1B cap seletion based in the order of the highest salary offered instead of random selection in the near future. Another factor is the growing economy and business markets.

Translation from Wise Grad

Today, there is an update on the H4 EAD case. Court ordered the case to be held in Abeyance and denied the plea of oral argument by SAVE Jobs USA. The court mentioned that, the reason for this decision is that they see the plan of rule-making by DHS to propose rule to remove H4 EAD in February 2018. The court also directed DHS to report the status on the H4 EAD rule within 90 days from the order day, which is today Feb 22, 2018 and also every 90 days after that. Basically, DHS needs to file an update with Court by May 22, 2018 on the H4 EAD rule-making. Now, as far as the rule-making. DHS is yet to send to OMB for review. So, we need to wait further for an actual cancellation confirmation.

They have to update every 90 days if they don't make a rule. So DHS can't take their own time to do it.
