arp83 Posted December 11, 2014 Report Share Posted December 11, 2014 Hi, My wife has stamped H4 visa till Sept 2015, She completed 3 semesters, COS approved to F1 on Dec 2014 and she will graduate in May 2015.I have couple of questions please guide:1. She is planning to visit India for F1 stamping in spring break (March) and if for some reason her F1 visas gets denied can she come back on existing H4 visa? or she will have to reapply for H4?2. Lets say if she visits India in May 2015 and do not apply for F1 visa stamping, can she come back on existing H4 visa? and will her COS to F1 still valid and start looking for job on OPT? Thanks!

jairichi Posted December 11, 2014 Report Share Posted December 11, 2014 1. If her H4 visa is not canceled by US consulate then she can use existing valid H4 visa. 2. Yes, she can come on H4 but she cannot work on OPT. Link to comment
rahul412 Posted December 11, 2014 Report Share Posted December 11, 2014 1. Yes, she can. No need of new H4 2. No, last entry matters. If she entered on H4 then she is on H4. Link to comment
JoeF Posted December 11, 2014 Report Share Posted December 11, 2014 When she enters using her H4 visa, she would be in H4 status, and can NOT do any OPT. Link to comment
arp83 Posted December 11, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 11, 2014 Thanks very my much everyone. I have one last question, if you guys can help This December she got Graduate Assistantship and SSN also, What are the chances of F1 rejection? Will this help her in getting visa? Thanks!

Having a SSN or graduate assistantship will have no influence on her F1 visa outcome. Link to comment
