If you file for EAD you will change your status from F1 to I-485 pending status, then start working under the EAD, you will no longer be in F1 status. Are you eligible for OPT, such that you can work and maintain your F1 status until you are certain that your I-485 has been approved?
Yes, I am eligible for OPT but I haven`t applied yet. If I find job before GC approval, should I work on OPT or it would be better to wait until GC approval?
