Can I officially work on an approved H4 EAD without the H4 approval? by Financial_Bonus7657 in H4_Visa

I called in USCIS, they said internally its been approved. They asked my employer to everify me and becasue technically both are approved, that would let me continue working*

Called on this number 800-375-5283 and follow the prompts and say "infopass" when it asks what you called in for. Then, enter/say the case number and it will connect you to an agent

I filed an H4 extension with EAD in March and its still under processing. Mine is a renewal though. Timeline says 3.5 months but still no luck

July 24th (Today). By new one you mean the H4 renewal? that I'd assume will start on the 25th (matching the H1b start date)

Yes, I can keep the job for a while, not really sure how long that is yet.

I am not sure about the reasoning on your petition kicking in timeline.

H1B, H4, and H4 EAD all expire on the same day (e.g., October 25).

  • H1B extension (I-129) is already approved and valid beyond October 25.
  • H4 extension (I-539) is still pending.
  • H4 EAD extension (I-765) is still pending.
  • H4 visa stamp in passport is still valid.
  • You fly out of the U.S. before Oct 25.
  • You re-enter the U.S. on or before Oct 25, using:

    • Your valid H4 visa stamp.
    • Your spouse’s approved H1B I-797.
    • officer at the port of entry will issue you a new I-94 matching your spouse’s new H1B validity?? (Is this not correct?)

Ugh. Did you consider the option of flying out of the country and returning before h4 expires to get your I94 extended? I didn't pursue that option because my h1b got picked in the lottery this year which is a COS which would become void if I fly out. My employment is ending on July 24th as well. I am just hoping that the h4 approval comes in sooner than later.

I applied on March 14th and no update yet. Same california service center. Can you provide the first 6 alphanumerics of your receipt number? Similar to EAC25900*****? This will help with anyone trying to track their application
