H1 valid or H4

[shwetajain_4]

Hi,
I have a valid H1 and due to some reason planning to go for a unpaid leave. However i am also thinking to apply for H4 as dependent on my husband (who is also in US). If my H4 is rejected due to some reason then do i still have a legal stay as i have valid H1 and i do not resign from my current employer?

Please advice

If you are changing status from h1 to h4 within US, your case seldom rejected, unless you are out of status in H1.
