After six years, based on my 7th year H1 , applied 7th year H4 (H1-H4) for my and we got a denial notice . Now we have appealed the case. The reason that was given is that he has completed 6 years in H visa. But there is a YATES family law which states that he is definitely eligible for H4. Keeping our finger's crossed. Now we are going for India to try and stamp there.
