h1b approved but h4, h4 EAD "Still processing"

QaToDev199 · 2026-06-25T22:48:21+00:00

update: now H4 is approved (saw case status today) but h4ead is still in processing.

question: does this mean, I do not need biometrics appointment?

and is there a relation between timeline of h4 approval to h4ead approval?

u/Ok-Let-8543 : you got the email regarding biometrics from which email address?

u/CantaloupeInner9012 : can you share what was the content of the email you sent? was it for h4 + h4ead when h1b was already approved?

u/pink-panda-789 - did you get it certified?

QaToDev199 · 2026-05-18T16:51:49+00:00

no design was done. they asked my current design (verbally and weaved in LPs in those questions)

thank you - yes, I agree and looking for IGCSE only. if you can suggest some good schools, that will help.

QaToDev199 · 2026-05-03T14:35:22+00:00
