atom_ant88 Posted July 1, 2020 Report Posted July 1, 2020 I work for a big firm A and have an h1b extension pending. My I-94 expires on Aug 30, 2020. Receipt date of the h1b extension is 26th may 2020 and since this is normal processing, I'm assuming the approval will take a long time, way beyond my I-94 expires. Additionally, I'm expecting an RFE as my home address is 100 miles away from work address, I have a long commute. My husband has a valid H1b with a different firm and we are considering applying for my H-4 visa before the I-94 expires. If my h1b application is approved, I'll withdraw the h4 petition. If h1b is denied, I can fall back on the H4 visa. Would this be a sound decision? Quote
User099 Posted July 1, 2020 Report Posted July 1, 2020 Best thing will be to the H1 in premium processing and get a decision before I94 expiry so that you will have time to transfer to H4 or a new H1 can be filed. Quote
gopalakrishnach Posted July 1, 2020 Report Posted July 1, 2020 Why do not you can do H1B in premium proccessing? Ask your employer to do it. having h1B and h4 petitions together is OK. Quote
