This in-depth episode unpacks a major shift: DHS is ending automatic extensions of Employment Authorization Documents for most renewal applicants, effective tomorrow. We explain what changed, why the government says this move is necessary, and how it could disrupt work plans for thousands of noncitizens who rely on EADs to stay employed.

You’ll hear clear guidance on who is affected, what exceptions remain, and the concrete steps to take before the deadline. We break down the key dates, what employers must do for I-9 compliance, and how to plan for possible employment gaps if your renewal is still pending. If you or your employees depend on an EAD, this episode gives you the practical context you need right now.
