yes ..get your i140 approved ...as soon as that is done you can file for work authorization (ead) for your spouse

like

Yes, you can but as someone pointed out it is taking really long time for EAD approval to come through. If you run out of OPT time, you can only continue working after receiving the EAD card.

I'm so confused about this process.. is H4 EAD only available for an I140 approved spouse?

Yes

thanks.. very less work options for H4 spouses in this country.. that's so sad.
