Q.

What is my legal status now - H1, H4 or without status

I entered U.S on Nov 2006 in H4 Visa (H4 Visa expiry was Sep 2008).
I got an H1 sponsor in 2008 & processed H1B premium. Refer the dates.
(Receipt Date: April 25 2008, Notice date May 23, 2008, I94 attached Valid from 01 Oct 2008 to 09/22/2011)
Simultaneously in 2008 my husbands's company applied for H4 Extension as it was about to expire in Sep 2008. (Reciept date - May 27 2008, Notice date - Aug 26 2008, I94 valid from 10/01/2008 to 05/12/2011)

I have not worked in H1 till now due to severe recession. My husband is in valid H1B status through out. My question is What is my legal status now - H1, H4 or without status. Please help me. What should I do to remain in valid legal status.
