roy.shilpiroy@gmail.com Posted October 9, 2015 Report Share Posted October 9, 2015 Hi , I am on H4 status with my status expiring on 15 October 2015.My H1 B was filed this year and although I got the receipt I am yet to receive my approved petition. I would appreciate if somebody can tell me whether I can continue staying in United States post Oct 15 2015 given that I have a valid H1B receipt. Thanks, Shilpi Link to comment
pontevecchio Posted October 9, 2015 Report Share Posted October 9, 2015 If the H1 person is done with status by October,2015, so are you. The pending H1 petition will be decided and will mandate getting a H1 visa if approved. Link to comment
jairichi Posted October 9, 2015 Report Share Posted October 9, 2015 Yes, till a decision is made on your H1B petition you can stay. Link to comment
roy.shilpiroy@gmail.com Posted October 9, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 9, 2015 Thanks for your reply. So if understand it correctly I do not need to file for H4 extension (although my I-94 is expiring on 15th October) as long as my H1B is in process .Please note that I just have a H1B receipt. Thanks, Shilpi Link to comment
