Working on H1B after filling H4 COS
I am still working on my current H1B even after filing H4 COS+EAD.
While filing for H4 COS, used future effective date of 1st July 2018.
Already 38 days are completed so far.
H4 COS processing time
Wondering if it’s going to take 3-4 months or just 40-50 days now a days? Appreciate your help.
Hi @cloud7
H1B and H4 in premium - result in 15 days
USCIS, generally, gives result for applications filed concurrently in Premium with H1B Visa within 15 days as a courtesy.
But, it is not guaranteed. In your case, it seems like they have moved the H4 COS and H4-EAD in regular processing.
Processing time for H4 change of status
If you check the current processing time for H4 Change of status applications (check here: https://www.am22tech.com/uscis/current-h4-processing-time/), they show the time 1 month to 4.5 months at California Service Center.
Did anyone recently filed for H1B to H4 COS+H4 EAD concurrently in California center ?Can you please let us know how much time it took?
USCIS website shows minimum 1 month to maximum 4.5 months.But by looking at H4 ED tracker ,they seem to process mostly in 40-50 days.Not sure if the timelines are different for COS+H4 EAD.
Appreciate if anyone can share their recent processing timelines for H1B to H4 COS+H4 EAD concurrently in California center ?
