Hi,
Regarding Q 21a., should we use the i-94 number on i-794(H-4) approval or the latest i94 which was updated after passport renewal? They both are different numbers and I am attaching H4 approval notice (instead of latest i94)hence the confusion.
Thanks,

Hi Anil,
Any pointers here. Should I enter the latest i94 even though I am providing H4 i-797 approval copy? Would this work?
Thanks

#12

Are your both I94s have future expiry date?
I would enter the latest, i.e. after passport renewal, and enclose it with the application.

#13

Yes, both have same future date. Related Q would be should if latest i94 number is entered does it make more sense to attach latest i-94 instead of H4 i-797 approval copy? Or that doesn’t matter?
Please confirm

#14

I think they will look arrival record only from latest I94
but your legal status from the H4 I797 copy.

IMO both documents are necessary.

#15

Thanks, I will add latest i-94 copy as well in the application packet. Since they state either one of them I wanted to make sure. Seems it would be sensible to include both to avoid surprises.

Also do I need to include copies of white i94 paper copy which is issued at land PoE?

Hi,
Quick question: If H4EAD renewal application is being filed with H1B (i129) as well as H4 extension (1539), which I797 number are we supposed to write for pnt: “29” in form I-765? The current approved i797 which is due to expire in a month?

#21

Hi @Som

You have to write “Filed concurrently” and not the receipt number.

#22

Thanks Anil for quick response! In the form it has 13 character boxes. How to accommodate the phrase “Filed concurrently”? Can you please help provide a sample?

Just write it without caring for boxes.

Or you can just write “concurrent”.

@Anil.Gupta - I have similar situation as Venkat - I understand the answer should be ‘Yes’ for that question. Is it recommended to elaborate under Part 6 Additional information stating the previous application for I765 was withdrawn ?

#37

Hi @bivinster

You can describe the reason for denial if you want.

#38

Hey @Anil.Gupta it’s not denial. I submitted H4 EAD application at Vermont center as soon as I140 got approved. It’s still pending decision. Now I would be doing H1 and H4 extension so I was thinking to withdraw the Vermont application for EAD as my extension would be filed in California.

Now when I fill the new h4 EAD application I see you have answered to notate yes where the question applies around if the applicant has applied i765 prior. Do you think it’s better to explain that I had to withdraw my application as the primary applicant approved stay was less than 6 months.
