British citizen working from USA for UK Ltd company, whilst EAD is applied for

Hello genies
need your expert advise..

background
I'm British citizen and working as contractor for UK bank through my own LTD company (i'm single director & wife <also British citizen is shareholder>.

My wife has been offered job in USA as L1A visa and I'll be going there as her dependant L2. I'll be applying for EAD so that I can work locally for US company. I understand that it takes time to get EAD. meanwhile, I would like to continue with my UK client, whilst EAD is getting sorted out. My client will be invoiced as BAU (i.e. UK invoice and payment in UK£ as normally client does)... My intention is to stop UK work as soon as I get my EAD approved and I find local job... but don't want to be jobless and househusband sitting in USA.

question
- is it allowed to work remotely when EAD is still in progress (i.e.whilst sitting in USA, I will be working on UK client).if yes, any impact on EAD process?
- Income earned by LTD company during that period, will it attract USA taxation <i.e. physical location of work will be USA but client, invoicing, work, payment everything will be UK>
- can I start applying locally in USA , with status EAD applied for.

please advise
