Mathew78 Posted October 16, 2014 Report Share Posted October 16, 2014 I came to the US on Jan 2012 with an L1B visa along with Spouse and kid. My company did H1B for me this year and I got my I797A valid from Oct-1, 2014. However, I didn't receive I-94 for my dependents and on further follow up with company found that they had missed out on filing for them. They have initiated L2- H4 transfer for my dependents today (Oct 16th). - is it better for my dependents to go back to India now and apply H4 from there - WIll they remain out of status untill a decision is made on the H4 application - How long does it take for their H4 to be approved - What are the risk of rejecting H4 - WIll the priod after submission of H4 request counted todays out of status days accrued.

jairichi Posted October 17, 2014 Report Share Posted October 17, 2014 1. Better as there is a possibility that COS might get rejected. 2. Yes. 3. 3 to 4 months. 4. They will have to exit and enter US with a valid H4 visa and a copy of your I797. 5. In this case the answer is YES. Link to comment
