Traveling with pending H4 EAD , H4 EXTENSION and H4 EAD EXTENSION with 3.5 months to my Approval

USA
1

Hello @anil_am22 , would appreciate your input on this : I have a Canadian PR and am planning to travel to Canada in October, November, and December 2024. During each of these months, I will be returning to the USA once on weekends.

Currently, I have an expired H4 visa stamp, but my I-94 is valid until January 2025. My H4 EAD, H4 Extension, and H4 EAD Extension applications are all pending, with my EAD receipt notice dated June 11th, 2024. Given that the Nebraska processing center typically takes around 6.5 months, my applications should be approved by the last week of December 2024.

Iā€™m concerned about whether these travel plans might cause any issues with my H4 EAD application when I return to the U.S. in December. Could you please advise on whether this travel could impact my pending applications and if there are any specific precautions I should take?

Thank you for your assistance

Please note @anil_am22 I filled for my H4 EAD first as standalone in May . Then Later filled for my H4 Extension + H4 EAD Extension together in July

Should not be an issue.

Many thanks for the prompt response. So I can travel and be back before December without raising an RFE that will delay or allow them to deny my H4 EAD ? Would you suggest I do any thing proactive just to mitigate any potential problem ?
