arg_austin Posted September 2, 2013 Report Share Posted September 2, 2013 Hi, I am currently on H1b visa expiring in Oct 2013 and my company has already filed for an extension and result is awaited. My wife who is on H4 also till Oct 2013 is going to India and would only be returning back in Feb 2014 (If I get my extension approved). My question is that if my extension gets approved, how do I file for her extension when she is in India? Also, as she would need to get her H4 extension stamped before entering US in Feb, can she get it stamped without my H1b Extension stamping? Looking forward for replies from you to resolve my doubts. Regards. Link to comment

So she can apply for the H4 extension only with my approved I797 without me getting a stamping done on my passport for the extension? Link to comment
