H1B Withdraw

Recommended Posts

My wife is on H4 visa rightnow. I applied for her H1B visa in 2016 and still there is no approval from USCIS. She got RFE and documents were submitted in Novermber,2016. So current status of her H1B is RFE documents received.

So the current situation is like - She is pregnate rightnow and she is not in the situation of finding a job for next upto 1 year or more. 

So we are looking for a possible solution for her change of status:
1) Current status - H4 : What if we withdraw her H1B application even before approval.
2) Status change from H4 to H1 to H4 : Wait for her H1 approval, then withdraw H1 and come back to H4 visa.
 - WIll there be any issue of chaging status from H1 to H4? She is not going to work on H1 and as soon as we got H1B approval, I will request for H1B withdraw.
 - I heard like if H1B application approved and if someone withdraw it then in future(within 6 years of approval) that person can again apply for H1B without passing through quota or lottery process.
 
 Please let me know which option will be better.
 
 Thank you.
