ush1bvisaholder Posted September 29, 2016 Report Share Posted September 29, 2016 Hi,I am currently on H1B with Employer1 and I got an offer from Employer2 and my H1 transfer is complete and I have the approved i797 with me. But the start date with Employer2 is in January 2017.My wedding got fixed in November 2016. I am travelling to India and I plan to return to US with my spouse on H4 in December 2016. My questions are below.1. Should I be worried of anything with this plan?2. Will there be any impacts to my Visa before or after joining Employer2 in January 2017?3. Will there be anything that I need to take care of before joining Employer2, now that I am married and my spouse got her H4 on my Employer1 visa?Appreciate your help!Thanks! Link to comment
pontevecchio Posted September 29, 2016 Report Share Posted September 29, 2016 Why would she get a H4 visa based on the previous employer when she can show the latest petition and get a H4 visa? Link to comment
ush1bvisaholder Posted September 30, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 30, 2016 So, Can I apply H4 visa for my spouse, with my Employer2 approved petition even though, I didn't join the company yet? Link to comment
pontevecchio Posted October 3, 2016 Report Share Posted October 3, 2016 Yes. I assume you will return and join B and that A is history. Link to comment
ush1bvisaholder Posted October 4, 2016 Author Report Share Posted October 4, 2016 I am not too sure how it goes with Employer 2 after I come back. So, Can we apply H4 on Employer1 and when we get into US, can we change it to Employer 2 or something? Link to comment
pontevecchio Posted October 5, 2016 Report Share Posted October 5, 2016 H4 status is only based on your valid H1 status and is NOT DEPENDENT on employers. Do you have a job with any employer after you come back ? Link to comment
