DHS ends 540-day automatic extension for EADs
On 30 October 2025, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) published an interim final rule (IFR) ending the practice of automatically extending the validity of Employment Authorization Documents (EADs) for those filing renewal applications in certain categories. Applicants who file EAD renewals in these categories on or after 30 October 2025 will no longer receive an automatic extension while the renewal application is pending. Instead, an applicant will only have work authorization pursuant to the issuance of a valid, unexpired EAD card. Therefore, the previous up-to 540-day automatic extension period only applies to the eligible renewals filed before 30 October.
