It's sad that my wife has to go on an indefinite work suspension because we are still waiting for her h4 and her EAD extension. This is third time we're extending and this time is the most frustrating one. We filed on November 28, 2020. How many of you were/are also in the same boat? And are there any ways to avoid work suspension? Fragomen said that she can't work until new EAD and EAD can't come before H4 in most cases. Those who did get the EAD and H4, how long did it take? #h4ead #h4eadprocessingtime #h4visa
It’s same here as well. My wife EAD is still under process. She may also lose job soon
When did you apply? How long have you been waiting?
I have been Waiting for 4 months
My wife has lost job
I'm sorry to hear that. This has definitely become a major pain. Good decision on going back to india. How long did you have to wait before she lost her job?
We are planning to go back to India
Waiting since 9 months for biometrics.
7 months for me
Check case status through Congressman or Senator’s office. Sometimes this helps in getting a faster decision on an application. Probably wait for a couple of months before using this option.
Nowadays this is also not helping..they r ignoring congressman request as well.
Do you need to personally know the congressman to ask help for faster updates ?
Filed june 2020.. still waiting
Any update? Was it in california?
H4/L2 EAD waiting time was 6months before covid
Many were waiting for biometrics appointment from past 1 year. I understand at present corona situation is bad in India, but why you guys didn't choose the option of going to India a month back and get it stamped from there ?
How would this help? Can't get stamped until h4 is approved right?
@OP: you can get H4 stamped on the basis of your approved I-797. However, after coming back, you need to revoke your pending H4 extension.
Aren’t companies filing H1 for those on H4 EAD?
Why would they do it during these covid uncertain times ? Also again luck factor for H1B.
I am not saying now. In general.

What happens when most of your team is Indian?
Have u guys considered relocating to non-US locations? One of my friend is relocating to India as her wife faced same situation with EAD
We have been here for around 8 years, and it's a big decision for us. We haven't considered it yet.
