Hi guys,

My H-1B is expiring January 01,2004. My wife's H-4 is expiring the same day. My lawyer is prepaing my H-1B extension right now. I am wondering after my H-1B got extended, is my wife's H-4 automatically got extended. Or do I need to ask lawyer to prepare her extension as well.

Any suggestion is helpful,
Thank you,BB
 
beware

h4 is NOT automatically extended if you extend your h1. this is a very common mistake leading to big trouble.

you HAVE to apply for h4 extention before the expiration of the current h4.

Ask your lawyer to file h4 extension for your wife also. You should do this.

--- File her H4 extension with your H1 extension

-- NO, ask your lawyer to file H4 extension of your wife in the same envelope
Or do I need to ask lawyer to prepare her extension as well.
---- You have to inform the lawyer. do you think Gabbar Singh will inform the lawyer?
