I have my H4 visa and if EAD goes away I won't be able to work and contribute. This is request not to take away H4 EAD.

    Please do not revoke H4ead, I have Master Degree from USA and I moved from student Visa to H4ead and have been contributing to the economy and science technology for USA. I have been a honest resident in this country without any violation of Laws and taxes, there are lot of people like me who will loose this opportunity. It is inhuman to take away H-4 spouse's freedom.

    In the first place, H4 EAD was introduced to make future citizens feel independent and competent. We go through normal interview process and compete with everybody else before companies hire us. Only the best will survive in this competitive world. Talented people competing with each other will only help better the economy and the country.

    H4 EAD is result of a long wait by highly skilled professionals, sitting at home waiting for their chance to prove that they are capable of something. Both women and men spouses have proven to be highly aimicable and contributing to the economy of United States. For example: A man with H4 EAD has worked as a political campaign strategist and also contributed significantly to the current Republican Party during the elections, proving that there are more talented and hardworking individuals, who are not recognized, just because they are not allowed to work. I think USA would miss some great minds at work if they would revoke this rule.

    This rule was introduced for High-Skilled workers "waiting in decade long lines" to get their Green Card and not for every h1b spouse. These are the legal people who are paying tax, revoking their rights to work is no good for anyone.

    Do not remove this rule. Companies are smart enough to hire the right candidate with the right talent and if they can find US citizen then they won't go for H4 candidate. H4 candidates are not stealing US citizen jobs in any way. In fact, it's helping US economy. If this rule is revoked, so many good candidates will lose the opportunities and even companies will have hard time in finding the good talent.

    This rule was introduced for only people "waiting in decade long lines" and not for every h1b spouse. There is a logical reason behind this rule. This category is unfairly being targeted as opposed to some of the other EAD categories because of the general opposition for H1B. In-stead of completely removing the rule it can be modified to have certain criteria like 1. US masters degree requirement. 2. Working only in your field of study.

    Before revoking H4-EAD we need to take a step back and understand why it was introduced, it was introduced to enable "Future citizens" to be competent. All the people who got H4-EAD are in-line for their Permanent Residency and hence Citizenship. They have same respect on this great country as anyone else, their Kids are born here. They are paying taxes and actively contributing to the economy. Now, lets say, if it is revoked then they would be job less and would be out of the market until their spouses gain Permanent Residency, in this ever changing world if someone is out of job for a considerable amount of time, it would be very difficult to start again, even if they start they will start from Level 1. So, what are we gaining after removing people from active workforce, especially engineers from workforce? More over it is affecting only people from few countries, isn't it discriminatory for a category like Job based, where the preference has to be based on the skillet than Country of birth? To put it simple, with all due respect it feels like giving preference to Biological child than a legally adopted child.

    Cancelling H4EAD is not good, mostly women take advantage of this who otherwise can't do anything sitting idle even though they are qualified which adds mental stress, job is not for just making money, it also keeps them occupied and gives satisfaction of some achievement

    We are almost similar and sometimes even higher education than our spouse. When we started working either we are creating or helping new jobs getting created. There are so many industries like child care gets benefit. Our earning capacity increases so our spending capacity. Which in turn help US economy. This year since I was working we paid almost double tax than last. And apart from help US economy and our community, it gives me my own identity. Please help many of us H4EAD people keep our indentity, our dreams intact.

    I am very confused with what purpose does rescind/canceling H4 EAD serve. They are given to future LPRs and serves a bridge to get dependents productive and contribute to the economy primarily cause the path to GC for folks of certain nationalities is way too long. To the fact that they take away "more" jobs, again it is given to someone who eventually will have the right to work in the future. To the fact that they incentivize temp workers to stay back, there has to be a legit immigration petition for the primary to be in place to secure H4 EAD. To the fact that it promotes fake resume-based hiring, it should be the hiring entities prerogative to screen candidates wisely. Fake and deception are morally wrong and statutorily unlawful in all spheres of life. Rescinding this rule won't solve that issue but rather push it out to some later point in time.

    Please do not destroy the lives of women along with their families. These are highly educated and hard-working people who are working day and night to make America the greatest place to live and work. Taking away their right to work will be a create a vacuum which can't be filled by anybody else. They are not stealing anybody's jobs but trying to make America business more competitive and producing more jobs for American people.

    Please do not cancel h4 ead. We are educated and skilled spouses who are waiting for their green card. Had the waiting time for green card not been so delayed, we would have received it and would have been allowed to work without any restrictions. We add to the economy. We have kids who are US citizens and have the right to live in US by birth right. Please do not rescind the ead.
