H1,H4 extention in july 13, h4-H1 converions in april 13

[Kaushik86]

Hi

Planning to apply H1 for my wife in April 2013. She is not on H4.

My H1B extention is due for july 31st .

1. If i apply H4 extention for my wife along with my H1 extention + a H1 for her in April

In july , she will have 2 in process status H4-> extention, should be done by july end, H1-> i amnot sure which stage it will be .

I learnt that which ever status comes first will be the final-and if h4 in july comes first , she wil be on h4 and again stamping is required.

Q's

1. If my wife has 2 different status in processes in july ,will that cause any RFE's for my H1 extention,

2. Cab H4 -H1B conversion be done before July , is there any premium processing possible. What is the possible stage for a H1B in july .

Regards

Kaushik

Hi,

Currently I am on H4 and My spouse is on H1 till july 2013.

What are the opportunities that I can convert my H4 Visa to H1 and how much time it will take?

Hi ,

I am on H4 and my spouse is on H1 till July 2013.

I want to convert H4 to H1 through consulting company A. Here my question is if I go through premium processing how long it will take to get the H1b approval.

Once we get the H1b approval , is that possible to transfer my H1b visa to other employer B from employer A immediately or is there any time period I have to wait for that. Please suggest on this urgent.

Thanks.
