H4 visa extension along with H4 EAD

[arjunanand]

Hello everyone,

My wife is on h4 visa and h4 ead with expiry date on Nov 30 2017. But my H1b expires in December 2018.

 

Today I applied for her extension i539 and i765.

My questions are

1. Did we apply in enough time before expiry date.

2. What if the h4 application process is still pending can she be still in the country.

3. Not sure about the processing time these days. We submitted documents to Phoenix location any clue about that.

Please let me know your thoughts.

I appreciate it.

Thank you for your response. 2 more questions

4. Is H4 EAD is only started processing after approval of H4 status? 

5. If so During this her driving license is based on EAD Expiry date. Does DMV renew her driving based on pending ead application?
