hello Folks, Can a Canadian citizen who entered US as a Canadian citizen ( and not on any visa ), apply for h4 ( cos ) and ead from within USA ?

p.s - spouse is on h1 and already in USA but for some specific reasons I prefer to apply for h4 from within usa.

Thx for your help

What is your status in US now, what you mean not any visa? They must have let you in on some status, you can file change of status from that to H4.

Canadians can enter US without any visa legally. So that’s my status. My husband is on h1b.

I prefer I change of status from within US. Hence my question. Thanks
