nish17 Posted June 19, 2018 Report Share Posted June 19, 2018 Hi All, Current H4 and H4 EAD is valid till Aug 2019. My new I-797 (did H1B transfer to new employer) is valid till July 2020. So I was planning to extend my wife’s H4 and H4 EAD now to get the validity till July 2020. But my lawyer told me : We recommend applying for concurrent H-4 and EAD extensions no more than 6 months prior to expiration, as such, it’s a little too early to submit the filings now. You should plan to file the extension proceedings in February/March 2019. Now I am confused. Shall I apply for the H4/H4 EAD extension now or wait till next year. Please advise. Link to comment

You need to wait till March 2019 as your attroney suggested. Link to comment
