    H1B Transfer after 6 years.

    yes, you should be able to transfer your h1 irrespective of how many years you are on H1 . You can use ur EAD to join another company (485 more than 180 days) or use ur H1 to transfer and ask the new company to continue your GC processing based on AC 21 .

    H4 renewal with EAD

    H1 extn is better as a safety net . As for your wife : If she wants to work , she needs the EAD or she needs her own H1 , so her H4 status is no longer valid ( thats my understanding :rolleyes: Either you are on H1/H4 status or EAD . You cant be both.
