Hi
I am currently working on L2 EAD and my husband is on L1 B. Can I request my employer for I-140 and if its approved, whats the best path to get the EAD for my husband and continue the stay in US
You can request for I-140 to be filed but it won’t give the option of staying in the US automatically to you and your dependents.
You need to have some visa type (like H1B or L1) to stay in the US until you get a green card.
i140 is for green card (which is a future job).
If you are India born, then, the wait for green card is quite long.
Your best option would be to first file H1B (with a US employer) and then change from L1 to H1B visa. Then, your employer can file i140 for you.
