H4 Visa EAD information

H4 EAD: Help with evaluating if the Writ of Mandamus is the way to go.

Hello everyone,

I have applied for I-765 (EAD) for employment authorization. Currently, I'm on an H4 visa which was issued last year. This is a standalone application in the sense that I have only applied for EAD.

My application processing center is in California, and the last update I got from them was about the receipt notice last week for April. So it's been more than four months since I have gotten any updates from the USCIS.

I was trying to see if I can get a response from USCIS. I do not qualify for expedited requests as my reason is more of "I'm freaking frustrated". I do have a pending job contract.

After talking to a lawyer, he said it's possible and would cost around $4500(!!).

My application is still processing for 4 months, which is still under the processing time suggested by USCIS, which is 9 months.

I'm trying to see if it's worth going down this route as it's a lot of $$$, and if there is a really low chance of this resulting in anything I'd like to know beforehand.

Does anyone have experience with successfully filing a Mandamus? Any help appreciated.

Hello

My H4 EAD (C26 code) and H4 status is expiring on 09/30/2022. My spouse filed for H1B, H4 and EAD renewal simultaneously in August' 2022 and received a receipt number from USCIS stating CASE IS ACTIVELY REVIEWED BY USCIS. My question is, am i eligible for automatic H4 EAD extension as per new DHS rule? Please suggest.

Also my I-94 will expire on 09/30/2022 what will be the procedure to continue my employment.

Thank you
Mrkavi

Hi,

I was in US on H1B for 7 years before converting to H4 EAD.
I am currently in status and working full time.
Do I have to go to India to get my H4 EAD VISA stamped, or I can go to Canada and get my new VISA stamped?

Please advise.


Thanks
Swaraj

Hi,

My H4 visa expires in 3months and I've received EAD this week with expiry date same as H4. My Spouse's H1 Visa extension receipt is not yet dispatched though we initiated it 2months ago. Will I still be eligible to apply for auto extension (i.e., 180 days as per EAD rules) or I need to wait until H4 extension is approved and then apply for H4 EAD Renewal.

If any of the members have info regarding the above query please do reply.

Thanks in advance!

I have worked in US earlier for 10 years on H1B visa before change of my status from H1B to H4. Currently I am in H4 status since 4 years,so should I say yes to the question #11 and mention the dates of my previous H1B visas or should I mention No to this question. Please let me know

H4 EAD Job

Just thought to share my story, since I see many of you are in same boat as I was. Just like you I was waiting for EAD, but was also aware of the fact that what I will be doing once I have it. So I joined one of the IT consultancy firm in SF bay area. I know that there are many firms in bay area, but to find the right one is difficult. The one I joined trained me very well in the field I wanted to go in. They made all the efforts to market me with their big clients.

So meanwhile my EAD was in process, I went for training and applied for interviews. And the best part is I got an offer in my 3rd interview itself. I was not confident at all but I realized that the training they provided was one of the reason I cracked the interview. So guys just an advice to you all, keep preparing for your interviews while EAD in the process and it never hurts to get trained and then go for the interviews.



Best Luck!

I applied only H4 EAD renewal (Not H4 Exension, H4 valid till August 14,2021) for my spouse on Sep 22,2020 and it is still Inprogress.

Now I am going to apply H1 Ext + H4 Ext + H4 EAD on normal processing On Feb 15,2021.

I want to know, whether I need to withdraw my spouse previous H4 EAD application before I apply this H4 EAD? If not withdraw my previous H4 EAD then two H4 EAD application will be in process at the same time...right?

hello- my H4 EAD was valid till 12/23/20..applied for renewal back in oct but havent heard anything since..meanwhile wife received her H1 renewal first wk of Jan. Also my DL in illinois expired with the visa on 12/23 but thankfully Illinois has ruled to auto extend all such cases till June due to Covid.

Doesnt the fact that my wife got her renwal mean that my H4 is also now valid for next 3yrs automatically?
Also, any ideas on the time lines for getting some update on my EAD?

On the license - can i go for renewal and show my wife's H1 approval letter as proof of valid proof?

Hi All,

I need to transfer from H4 to F1 (I have EAD). I am planning to change the visa status by Travel & reentry (at Vancouver US Consulate). Does anyone have a similar experience?
If yes, please help me with have the following questions:

1. How is the interview process?

2. What questions do they ask?

3. How much time does it take to get the passport back?

4. Just in case the officer rejects my F1, will the H4-EAD get revoked?

5. The college website says, 'You may not enter the U.S. earlier than 30 days before the start date (30th September 2020)'. Will I need to take the visa interview appointment at Vancouver accordingly (For Eg: Around 1 or 2 September)? What if I take the appointment in July or August, will they allow me to enter the US on a new F1 visa?


Thanks in advance!!

Hello Guys,

I had applied for my COS to h4 and h4 ead while I was in USA. I had to leave the country before the approval but received approvals for both last week. Will this be considered and will i be able to work on the H4 EAD when i go back after getting my visa stamped or would i need to re -apply for my EAD again?
Any help will be highly appreciated.
