Can EAD clock stops because of covid-19.
answered on Jun 2, 2020
No. EAD clock does not stop because of covid-19. If you applied for asylum at least 150 days ago and still have not received an initial decision on your asylum application, you can file form I-765 and supporting documents with USCIS to request your Employment Authorization Document (EAD).
During this COVID-19 pandemic, with USCIS Field Offices closed, can I still file an I-130 now that I am married to a U.S. Citizen?

You can file the FORM I-130 at a lockbox of the USCIS depending on your residence. Please see the filing instructions in the USCIS website for the correct address for filing.
Relative petitions are not filed at a local field office of the USCIS which are currently closed to the general public.

However, USCIS may view the receipt of benefits as a factor regarding your “good moral character “. You may want to... View More
