I just filed my H-4 and H-4 EAD extensions together. Both my I-94 and EAD are about to expire. Am I now allowed to work for 240 days based on the pending extension applications?

No. While there is a rule that allows certain categories of nonimmigrant workers to continue working for the same employer for up to 240 days based on a timely-filed petition to extend status, that rule does not apply to H-4/EAD extension applications. (05.Oct.2023)
