Case Summary.

Avalon Paul helped an Indian professional change status from H-1B to H-4 with an I-539, filed alongside an H-4 EAD application before her H-1B employment ended. Built on her spouse's H-1B and approved I-140, the approval preserves her lawful status and positions her to work and build her own venture while she prepares for a future O-1 petition.
