H4 EAD pending extension stays active with H1B transfer

Your pending H4 EAD extension with current employer can stay active if you file H1B transfer.

But, we have seen in many cases that USCIS denies both applications if the old Employer withdraws H1B before USCIS processes H4 and EAD.

So, its better to file a new H4 and H4 EAD with H1B transfer.

H4 EAD chances of RFE

There is a possibility that H4 EAD might get an RFE if you leave your current employer and they file for H1B withdrawal before H4 EAD is approved.
