H4 EAD extension

Hi,

My wife’s H4 EAD is expiring on Dec 2024. We already applied for extension. But my H1b and her H4 extension is still in process and its not yet approved. Can she work after her H4 EAD expiry date as we applied for extension already or should her h4 extension be approved.

H4 EAD can work while extension pending & card expired if H4 i94 is valid. Automatic 180-day extension allowed by USCIS. L2 does not need EAD to work.
