H1B visas last 3 years. You can only have two and then you have to apply for a Green Card or return to your home country. Your wife and child can get H4 visas if you have a H1. Your wife would not be able to work legally on an H4 but your child can attend school. You can get a driver's license with an HI. You can only legally work for the company named on the H1B visa and no other company.

Can a student with an EAD card on Optional Practical Training marry a green card holder and continue to work in the US before receiving the H1-B visa?

You can marry the green card holder but that does not affect your ability to work. Your right to work is completely tied to your OPT and then your H1B. If there is no gap between the end of your OPT and start of H1B then you can carry on working. If your OPT ends then you have to stop working and can not start work again until you have your H1B. Your marriage to a green card holder is irrelevant - you must have your own visa to stay in the USA.

What is the difference in tax implications when transitioning from an F1 visa to an H1B visa?

When transitioning from an F1 visa to an H1B visa, the tax implications change because H1B visa holders are considered resident aliens for tax purposes, while F1 visa holders are typically considered nonresident aliens. This means H1B visa holders are subject to U.S. income tax on their worldwide income, while F1 visa holders are generally only taxed on income from U.S. sources.
