H-4 Traveling to other Country

[highonsugar]

Hi,

I'm a Canadian citizen who is about to travel out of the country for the summer but my new H4 hasn't come down yet. My H4 will end at the end of September this year.

Would there be any problems if I return a couple of days before the visa expires? My lawyer suggested applying for a "loose" petition and having someone mail it back to me while I'm out of the country.

What is a "loose" petition? And whats the best way for me to travel without running into any visa problems?

----- you have valid H4 status till September. you can go out of US Canada does not need H4 visa to enter.
Would there be any problems if I return a couple of days before the visa expires?
----- If your H4 extension is pending with USCIS then you can come back before your H4 expires in September

-----------------I dont know what is "loose" petition. He may be saying that file H4 extension with Form I-539 and if you are out of US and your H4 extension gets approved then your spouse can send you H4 extension approval notice if you are out.
