Hi, posting on behalf of my friend.
My H1B & wife's H4 EAD + H4 visa stamp expired on 05 Oct 2017. However we already received the I797 approval notice with valid I-94 till 2020. Though we haven't filed wife's EAD extension which was expired in October as she wasn't working.
We have to travel now to India between 25th Nov to 23rd Dec 2017, during when we will visit Mumbai US consulate for visa stamping.
Given this situation would it be prudent to file wife's H4 EAD extension before we leave for India? Or it should be filed after coming back from India?
Is there a possibility of getting a RFE or NOID since we currently don't have valid stamp, and, I94 will change when we travel ?
