Yes file it.

Even otherwise you should apply H1b extension till you get 140 done. Do not forget to file H4 extension for your family.

What if spouce is using EAD. Can we apply H4 person being in US of A.

You can apply H4 but you will have to send your spouse to home country to get it stamped, so practical would be not to apply but keep papers ready in case he/she has to appear in person in US consulate in home country.
 
guys, my I140/485 ND is 4/7/03. I140 was approved in march, 04. Now I am in my H1 and H1 expires on june, 04. Please suggest me if I need to file 7th year H1 extension.

Thanks.
