What step (s) of the process premium process can be used? When can EAD be obtained for the H1B holder spouse? How long on average does it take for the EAD to be approved? Any tips to expedite EADs under the PERM process?

Premium processing is not available for EAD applications. H4 spouses can get an EAD only after the H1B holder's I-140 is approved. EAD processing times vary, check USCIS website for current estimates. To indirectly speed up the process, focus on expediting the I-140 by submitting a complete PERM application, considering premium processing for I-140 (if eligible), and providing strong supporting documents.
