  • In this video I explain the H4 EAD process in detail. Stay until the end where I also provide some options that should be considered instead of H4 EAD due to its dependency on H1B.

    Nice video, I have a question
    There is no H4 approval notice as she directly went to stamping on H1B approval notice in India. She has latest I94 and Visa stamping. These two documents are good enough or do we need to submit any additional document in place H4 I 797 approval notice ?

    My son is holding h4 visa under my wife's H1b. I am also holding a H1b. And my 140 got approved. Should my son apply for a new H4 as my dependent before filling his EAD? Thank you!

    Hi sir, I
    I have applied for first time standalone H4EAD 2 months July 2021 but looking at the long processing time the expected card will likely expire by the time it will come which is March 2022. Can I apply new H4EAD with H4 Extension or I have to wait for the first HEAD before filling for extension?

    Hello Mandar, thank you for creating such informative videos on the various topics related to the immigration. I would like to know if a H4 dependent child (unmarried under 18) can be eligible for an EAD if the primary H1B visa holder fulfill the criteria (approved i-140).

  • @hbasavarajgouda1367

    I am a bit confused about the category with which I have to apply for my EAD. Is it C09 or C26? My wife will be getting her I-140 approved for the first time, in next 10+ days. And her H1 is valid for another 16 months. I have applied for H4 COS (5.5 months ago) but, don't have the approved notice I-797 yet for my H4. Can I go ahead with EAD application, with her I-797 and with my I-539 receipt?

    Can we get H4 EAD without I140 ??
    As per USCIS,
    Certain H-4 dependent spouses of H-1B nonimmigrants can file Form I-765, Application for Employment Authorization, if the H-1B nonimmigrant:
    Is the principal beneficiary of an approved Form I-140, Immigrant Petition for Alien Worker; or
    Has been granted H-1B status under sections 106(a) and (b) of the American Competitiveness in the Twenty-first Century Act of 2000 as amended by the 21st Century Department of Justice Appropriations Authorization Act (AC21).
    I wanted to check if Rule 2 is valir or not.

    • @MandarKasture
      @MandarKasture  4 года назад +3

      H4 EAD can be applied based on pending H4 which is based on approved H1b. So go ahead and apply.

    Had one question. Currently application for I-140 has been submitted for approval under premium processing. My current 797 will expire in July 2021, so will apply for extension somewhere in Jan 2021. So kindly wanted to check once my I-140 gets approved so shall I apply for h4 rad or have to wait till next year to apply along with extension. Pls advice

    • @MandarKasture

    I have H1 b up to 2023 and my spouce have H4 EAD up to August end 2020 and my spouce already applied for EAD extension on Feb 2020 , now due to Covid i didn't get ead extension so far and it is showing received application ,
    If my husband ( primary H1b holder) changes employment ,whether my spouce h4 ead will be withdrawn
    What will happen to my spouce EAD

    • @MandarKasture
      @MandarKasture  4 года назад

      Not sure who is asking the question H1B holder (husband) or H4 EAD holder (spouse). Regardless I got your questions. H4 is dependent on valid H1B and EAD is dependent of valid H4. So even if your husband changes his job and does H1 transfer, you can also file H4 extension along with the transfer as well has apply for new extended EAD. Your current EAD extension may not be processed as you new H4 and EAD will be pending. It all depends on the timing.

    Hi,
    I have a query on H4 EAD. I was with an Employer (Say A) where my H1B and H4 was valid till Aug 2023, but recently I joined a new employer (Say B) . Employer B filled my H1B transfer and it got approved till 2025, They also filed the H4, I received the receipt notice but yet to receive the Approval for H4. I this situation, can I go ahead and apply for H4 EAD? or I need to wait until my wife receives the H4 extension approval and then file the H4 EAD.

      Hi Jyothi, She should first try to get a job in California if she has an OPT with an employer who will file her H1b next year. I am assuming she is working in Boston on OPT. If she goes on H4, unless her husband has approved I-140 immigrant petition, she will not be eligible for H4 EAD.

Now if I go for emergency H4 stamping in India and travel back to US, will I be able to work on H4 EAD or will there be any restrictions as I travelled on emergency stamping. I am asking this question because on H4 visa it’s getting stamped as “ NIE UNDER P.P ON RISK TO LABOR MARKET.”
