My current H1-B expires on March 31, 2005. My EAD begins from Jan, 2005 to December, 2006. Now my department asks me whether I need to renew my H1-B or not. My hu*****and's current H1-B (it is first) expires on September, 2006. We applied for AP and want to go back my homecountry this summer for vaction. Our I485 were submitted in Oct, 2003, my hu*****and is primary applicant. My hu*****and's job is very stable and he can renew his H1-B when his current one expires.
Do I need to renew my H1-B visa? When we come back US using AP, my hu*****and will keep his H1-B status, right? If I use my EAD, I can continue work with EAD. I am just wondering that if our I-485 were denied, can I transfer to H-4 or I am out of status and have to leave US? If I can transfer to H-4, I think I don't need to renew my H1-B, right?
Even though my H1-B was renewed, I still have to use AP to enter US if I don't want to go to the US consuler to get visa, right?
