Hello experts.
Please clarify my queries.

1) I recently got my 7th year extension approved by USCIS for Company A. If I move to company B within 1 or 2 months time frame, can I get my 8th year extension applied along with my transfer of H1B/H4? Please clarify.

2) As my RIR labor is pending, what kind of documentary proof I need from Company A to company B to get my 8th year extension of H1B/H4?

3) Will the screen snap shot @ the Backlog center, would suffice?. I have my case number of the backlog center, screen snap shot of my pending case and nothing else ( i do not have any other proof like receipt of filing initial RIR with CA SWA or copy of 45-day letter notice & reply to that)?

4) Does H4 applicant (my spouse) need to be physically present while transfering H1B/H4 from Company A to Company B? I (H1B) holder will be present in USA, H4 might be present in India for vacation?

Please advice on all above queries. Thanks for all your suggestions & help.

------------company B can apply 8th year H1 extension and transfer at the same time (talk to company B lawyer inform that Transfer and extension is to be filed)
2) As my RIR labor is pending, what kind of documentary proof I need from Company A to company B to get my 8th year extension of H1B/H4?
------------------ LC filing reciept copy, it may be with lawyer who filed LC
3) Will the screen snap shot @ the Backlog center, would suffice?.
--------------YES (you dont need LC filing copy from past employer)
I have my case number of the backlog center, screen snap shot of my pending case and nothing else ( i do not have any other proof like receipt of filing initial RIR with CA SWA or copy of 45-day letter notice & reply to that)?

4) Does H4 applicant (my spouse) need to be physically present while transfering H1B/H4 from Company A to Company B?
-------------- H4 is not needed to be transfred, H4 is tied to your H1 status, if H4 is going to expire then file H4 extension with your H1 extension so that your H1 and H4 approval notices will have the I-94 attached and both will have same validity of both I-94. H4 extension can only be filed IF H4 holder is in US
I (H1B) holder will be present in USA, H4 might be present in India for vacation?
----------H4 extension cant be filed if H4 holder is out of US
Please advice on all above queries. Thanks for all your suggestions & help.

*** if H4 holder has H4 valid visa stamp( through A) at the time of entry to US then at the POE H4 holder should show valid visa stamp and YOUR H1 approval notice and will get I-94 till YOUR H1 approval notice
