--depends on service center, check the processing times of your service center

---- if you have been on H4 for 6 years, you cant apply H1 from US go out, stay 1 year out of US then apply fresh H1if you find any US employer who can file H1 for you if you are eligible, others will guide you with more info, you CAN file H4 extension with your spouse H1 extension
Please reply
THanks.

---- H4 is based on H1 if H1 holder was for 6 years then H4 and H1 both are counted 6 years

---- I think you cant file H1, go to good lawyer for legal advice
