60天变1年？重大利好吗？

Period of Authorized Stay - Compelling Circumstances Employment Authorization Document

Workers who are the beneficiary of an approved employment-based immigrant visa petition (Form I-140) may be eligible for a compelling circumstances EAD for up to one year if they:

do not have an immigrant visa available to them in the Department of State’s Visa Bulletin, and
face compelling circumstances.
Note: A compelling circumstances EAD is a discretionary stopgap measure intended to assist certain individuals on the path to lawful permanent residence by preventing the need to abruptly leave the United States. Workers who begin working on a compelling circumstances EAD will no longer be maintaining nonimmigrant status but generally will be considered to be in a period of authorized stay and will not accrue unlawful presence in the United States while the EAD is valid. More information about eligibility requirements and the application process can be found on our Employment Authorization in Compelling Circumstances page.

不过这个貌似好几年前就有了，不知道为啥以前从来不知道，可能是成功率很低聊胜于无？

中文的解释：https://www.wholelawyers.com/top...3e984d-5-27-2020-19

from google结果：

What is considered a compelling circumstance?

Although the regulations do not define compelling circumstance, DHS listed some examples in the notice of proposed rulemaking to include the following:

Serious illness/disability to a non-immigrant worker or his/her dependent;
Employer retaliation;
Substantial harm to the applicant; or
Significant disruption to the employer.
In light of COVID-19 and the problems associated with it, it would certainly be possible to make a more compelling case, however, the number of people applying for this type of employment authorization will have undoubtedly increased and USCIS will limit the issuance to the most extreme cases.“

看起来并没有那么好申

政策是早就有的，这个移民局官网只是提醒大家有这些选项而已。

裁员规模再大，也不算是 compelling circumstance，之前的疫情算是。2022年这波裁员也没法说是疫情导致的吧？

哪位同学有经验，请分享一下。谢谢

这和60天失业期不是一个东西啊。。但还是第一次听说，有没有人申请过这个的？

看了看 居然不是485的ead card 以前怎么没注意

这个看着倒是不错哎，只要你有approved 140 + 当前H1，L1之类的

Workers who are the beneficiary of an approved employment-based immigrant visa petition (Form I-140) may be eligible for a compelling circumstances EAD for up to one year

不过是不是已经提交485 就没啥关系了。。。。。哎 提交了485 然后又有排期

对有排期的人too good to be true. 但是要看那个compelling circumstance 怎么认定 layoff也算？

求解读！字数补充……
