Wife's H4 EAD issue
Hi Everyone,
I have a unique situation for which I have not been able to get any answers.
I recently switched companies. In my previous company, my H1b, wife's H4 and H4 EAD were valid till Sept 2021.
When the immigration lawfirm (of current company) filed for transfer of my H1b, wife's H4 and H4 EAD, my H1b got approved till May 2022. But wife's H4 and H4 EAD got approved till Apr 2020 only (validity reduced than what she already had, Sep 2021). In her I-797 notice, we saw that USCIS approved till May 2022 but CBP screwed up approved only till Apr 2020.
Immigration lawfirm suggested to re-file her case, which we did. But since there is a long wait in processing, we don't know what will happen after Apr 2020. Did anyone else ran into similar issue? Can my wife still work, based on her previous EAD which was valid till Sept 2021? Is there anything else we can do to correct this mistake from CBP/USCIS?
Thanks for any suggestion/help.
