A separate H-4 dependent case should be opened in your Envoy account for any family members in the U.S. who require their own H-4 filing. Dependent cases are opened for Cap registrants after they have been notified of selection.  
For family members who will apply outside the U.S., dependents can typically apply for an H-4 visa at the consulate based on the primary's approved H-1B status. In this situation, it is not necessary to submit an H-4 application to USCIS before applying for the H-4 visa at the consulate.
If you have questions on dependent filings, post a message including the dependent(s) current status and location to the legal team in the Communication Center.
