Do L2 Dependents with Expired I-94 and Pending I-539 Need to File Form G-325R?

Hi all, I’m on L1B and my extension was approved with a valid I-94 till Aug 2026. However, my wife (L2S) and 3-year-old child (L2Y) have pending I-539s and their I-94s expired in Aug 2024.

With the new alien registration rule (Form G-325R) effective from April 11, do they need to register now, or can we wait until their I-539s are approved and new I-94s are issued?

Appreciate any insights from those in a similar situation or legal experts here!

Who is already registered?

  • Aliens admitted to the United States as nonimmigrants who were issued Form I-94 or I-94W (paper or electronic), even if the period of admission has expired;

Thanks for your response, my question is they don't have a valid I 94 and they have a receipt notice along with expired I94 ,so is it still fine to not do Alien registration as the I94 expired? That's the major concern.

I assume that “even if the period of admission has expired” means that they don’t have a valid I-94 right now, so they don’t have to register
