Hi,

First of all thanks a lot for answering these questions of the community.

I am on H1b valid till Sep 2022 and I applied H1 to H4 COS in December for my wife who recently finished her H1B visa (she has not maxed out on 6 years). In Jan 2021, I also applied her EAD knowing that EAD will get approved only after USCIS approves her H4 COS. Now in July 2021, we need to travel to India and in case her COS to H4 is not approved before she leaves to india, she plans to go for stamping for H4 in Delhi. Few Q:

1. Can she go for stamping in India for H4 and reenter US?

2. If yes,

     2a. then what will happen to her H4 COS (do i nee to withdraw it manually)

     2b. what will happen to the EAD application i filed. Do i have to file her EAD again once she comes back to US with H4 stamping?

Any other suggestions to avoid issues?

thanks a lot!
