H4 Visa Petitioner Name

[srinum]

Hello Everyone,

I am on Valid H1B visa and we are scheduling the H4 Visa appointment for my wife for Nov 5th and while completing the form there are 2 sections where it is asking for

1. Principle Applicant's Name

2. Priciple Applicant's Visa Status

I want to know who will be the principle applicant here. Will it be myself( the H1B holder) ?

Also there is another section which asks for the Petitioner

Who will be the petitioner in this case ? Will it be my Employer who filed my H1B or myself ?

Thank you in advance and waiting for your reply

I also have same questions. Is employer or I am the Petitioner for my wife's H4B visa.

I have the same question.

I called the office and they tell that Principal Applicant and Petitioner will be the same i.e. name of your spouse who holds H1b.

I am still confused because the i97 of spouse (H1b holder) says that the Petitioner is his company.

I got my answer and the Principal Applicant and Petitioner will be the spouse.

"I am still confused because the i97 of spouse (H1b holder) says that the Petitioner is his company."

For H1B holder the company/employer will apply and for spouse company/employer will not apply so the petitioner is not company but H1B holder itself
