Hi folks,
I need some advice from the members of this forum. I have a typical case which I would like to get a honest feedback.
1. 6 years of H1B expired on 17-Dec-2015
2. H4 applied a month ago on 17-Nov-2015 and staying on H4 Receipt since then legally
3. H4 not yet approved
4. I-140 of my wife approved last week.
My Questions:
Can I travel to India when H4 I539 is pending?
What are the documents that I need to take for Consulate
Should I revoke the I-539 . If yes should I need to do that after going out of country or can I do it here and then leave to india.. Firstly is it the best approach?
Once I come back then will the previous I-539 becomes invalid?
Can I file for the H4-EAD when I am outside the country when I am in India by scanning the documents and sending from there?
What may the questions for H4 and what should I answer if they ask what I was doing for the last 2 months..
Since my 6 years were over by Dec 17 2015 am I in out of status though I have my H4 receipt till date. but it becomes invalid when I go out of US to India.. so am I out of status from Dec 17th?
Do I need to take the original Petition of my wife or just a copy is enough?
Please let me know as I am planning to go to India to get stamping and come back on H4 and then file H4 EAD.
Thanks,
