Generally speaking, a job change on H1B is possible when the H-4 COS is pending. The H-4 is spouse specific, not specific to the H1B worker’s job. However, if s/he is also applying for an EAD, your spouse may encounter problems in the job change situation if the EAD is based on an approved I-140. If the petitioner requests revocation of the I-140 due to the job change before the EAD is approved, that may cause the EAD to be denied. (16.Nov.2015)
