H4 Ext and H4 EAD
Hello All,
My Attorney had filled H4 Ext separately from my H1B ext. I have received H1B approval in 40days, but H4Ext (I 539) is still pending. The Case is with Vermont Center and it was filed on Aug 28th. When I look at current processing times, they are processing I539 application from March 13th as of today. So it seems this application wouldn’t be touched for another 8 months.
Meanwhile, when we contacted our Attorney about H4 EAD (I-765) application, they suggested us to go-ahead with H4 Ext receipt number, which we filed that as well. Which is another biggest mistake in the current situation as this EAD application will not be touched until we get decision on H4 Ext.
So, we are planning to visit India for H4 stamping, so that we could avoid the wait time.
Now, my question is, once we get H4 stamped in India, is it possible to attach this new H4 receipt number to already applied H4 EAD application and get EAD application processed without filing new application, so that we save time and money on EAD?
Please advice.
Thanks,
Kalyan Polasi
