Is it legal to file for H4 before I-94 expiry date?

What to do in case my H1B and I-94 has expired. I have filed for COS to H4. Would it be ok if I have filed H4 before I-94 expiry date?

While it is a good idea to keep the expiration dates the same for both the H1B and H4, it is not an absolute requirement. The USCIS does not have to do anything to the H4s I-94 when an H1B changes jobs.

It has been 3 months my dependent I94 has expired and I am also worried about this. Still, H4 transfer has not initiated.

Did you file Extension for H4? or not yet? What was the legal advice given in this case?

The best person to answer this is an attorney.

Do you know someone who has applied for H4 earlier? Ask them
