Hi,
Did you find answer to H4 EAD status?

Thanks

Not yet.

What I know as of now is that NRMP is just a matching tool that enables programs to participate and select candidates. Data entered in NRMP is just for statistics purpose -as given in the NRMP website.
Programs offer interviews and make selections merely by the information transmitted though ERAS.

Hi, do mind telling , what did you choose in ERAS application, i am also on EAD-h4 visa.

In NRMP, probably we should choose NON-USCitizen, other, since rest of the options dont indicate you.

The answer is "NO" you are not a citizen.
Then choose "Foreign National Residing in the U.S with valid visa status" or "Foreign National Residing Outside of the US". Whichever one applies to you.

Just additional information:

Permanent Residents have greencard valid for 10 years.
Conditional Permanent residents have greencard valid for 2 years
Refugee/Asylum/Displaced person- self explanatory
Pending Application for Permanent Resident- if you submitted an application to USCIS to become a lawful permanent resident, have interviewed with immigration, given a "case number" for pending applications, or is now waiting for the greencard to arrive.

Note: If tourist residing in the US (usually 6 months)-- You are still considered Foreign National Residing outside of the US. Reason: you are here to visit and your residence is in another country.
