Maybe re frame your post to provide pertinent information. It is a bit confusing as it stands.

6 years minus existing time in H1 status in the USA.

Is there any reason why you are not trusting your lawyer to answer these questions? Most lawyers let alone a forum would have to look up the answers .

Either file a H4 extension or get a letter from your lawyer about the matter and go to the Tijuana border with Mexico and make an Uturn and ask CBP to give you a new I94 based on the approved H1 petition of your spouse. AVR is not a compulsory imposition and can be declined if the needs arise. The fee for a new I94 is 12 USD.

For CP, you need the police certificate from the RCMP.

No harm mentioning it and stating Online and giving the Office Address.

Sure, You can travel.

You should discuss the matter with the firm of Murthy or any of your choice. How do you think they are going to know? As a GC holder, you can stay in any state.

You have work authorization till 2020. The visa is not relevant to your DL. The I94 is relevant. If the front line genius at the DMV is mistaken, ask for a supervisor. Ask your company to have the lawyer file extensions for the kids and also ask the company to help with the DL issue.

You do not have to leave NA. You HAVE TO POLITELY INSIST ON A NEW I94 and state categorically that YOU will not be using Automatic Visa Revalidation if you are visiting Canada or Mexico. AVR is not a punishment inflicted on people. It is a choice of convenience. Obviously I-539 is a COS and since you posted in the H1 section, I am assuming you are talking about H1 in which case I-539 is not the form. You can tell your employer to refile a H1 petition for you as an alternative.

If you were in H1 status here for 8 months, you are eligible to claim the remainder 5.4 years in total non cap.

Once you join B, any petition with C will be for consular processing unless the petition with B is first approved.

Transfer just means another employer has filed a non cap H1 petition for you. Nothing is actually transferred. You can continue to work for A should you prefer or work for A to do your notice period and then change to B.

It has just been one month. She needs to leave soon and return with a H4 visa.

VISA is an entry foil/stamp in your passport. H1 status refers to total number of days in the USA and working for a H1 employer based on an approved H1 petition.
