Applying for h4 will f1 stamp be cancelled

[confused_F1]

Hi Experts,

I want to apply for H4 stamping in my home country. I have a valid F1 visa and I am working on OPT. I need to travel to my home country so I want to get my H4 stamped. If I get a 221g , Can I travel back on F1 or will it be cancelled when I apply for H4?

Thanks

Once you return in H4 status the OPT is gone.

On returning with H4 visa stamped . I have no issues of F1 ending. But When I go for stamping will they cancel F1 right away ?

I just want to be on the safe side that if my h4 goes for 221g I can come back on F1 .

Your F1 will get canceled

Why don't you come back on F1 status instead of going for H4 visa. I think that is safe. You can go for H4 visa stamping if you have to go to India after your OPT expiration.
