vsudhanshu Posted February 25, 2011 Report Share Posted February 25, 2011 Hello All, I have got my H1B approved recently. I have my I-797, I-129 and I-94 documents as well as other supporting documents to send them to my wife in India for her dependent (H4 visa). Do you know that during the interview for H4 visa, does she really have to have a copy of valid H1B visa of principal applicant stamped on the passport? OR I797, I129 and I94 would work fine? Previously I was on F1 visa and this is my first H1B and earlier I tried to file F2 visa for my wife which got rejected reason being I was on OPT. Please help guys. Thanks in advance. Link to comment
kumar523 Posted February 25, 2011 Report Share Posted February 25, 2011 Valid I-797, I-129, I-94 and all other supporting documents should work fine. Principal applicant's VISA stamp in the passport is not mandatory. In fact, I have posted the same question earlier. The response was same. Link to comment

txworker Posted March 13, 2011 Report Share Posted March 13, 2011 Hi vsudhanshu, Did your wife get H4 stamped? I am in the same boat. Please let me know. Link to comment
harry83 Posted March 14, 2011 Report Share Posted March 14, 2011 Hi, my husband got H4 stamping on march 10th at Hyd consulate, and I do not have H1b visa stamping in my PP. It shuld not be a issue. Gud luck guys!! Link to comment
Pranav6789 Posted March 18, 2011 Report Share Posted March 18, 2011 Guys, My wifes H4 is put on hold and consulate (HYD)asked for my H1B valid visa stamp in my PP which I dont have. I have I-797 valid H1B and rest of all documents - Working for the same company since my last H1B visa stamp. I have contacted my Attorney and they said H1B visa stamp is not needed for H4 visa stamp. They said they will prepare for a response. Does anyone had the same experience? If my wife goes back to consulate with that response, will she get the stamping done? or is it safer - If I go to my H1B stamp in Mexico or Canada and send her the stamping copy in my passport? Please help. Link to comment
