Question

Can a temp alien(EAD) become a ohio resident?

Answer 1

Since you only have temporary permission to work, you remain "ordinarily resident" in your country of citizenship.  You might live temporarily in Ohio but you are not a legal resident or legal permanent resident under immigration law.  

And contrary to one person's comment, you cannot go to school.  If you apply to for college, etc. you must get a student visa, and to get that you must return home to apply.

Answer 2

EAD abbreviation of Employment Authorization Document is not a visa, but temporary working permit. It only allows you to work legally in US. It doesn't allow you for immigration status.

Answer 3

sure, you can be a resident of any state that you live in... an EAD allows you to work, live, go to school, and travel anywhere in the U.S.
