Hi,

 

I came to US on H4 visa and i got H1B last year. However due to personal reasons , i want to go back to H4. I have to travel to India in March 2016. Following are few questions i have.

 

1) Is it safe to apply for H1B to H4 COS now as my travel in March is compulsory.

2) What happens if i dont receive approval before i travel.

3) What happens to my H1-B , will it be cap exempt in future.

4) If the chances of getting COS approval before my travel are low, Is it better to go for H4 VISA stamping in India based on my Spouse H1B?. Will the interviewer ask any questions related to my H1-B and if yes, what should i say?

 

5) After coming to US with H4 visa, will my H1-B period keep counting and will i have CAP exempt still?

 

6) Difference between applying for COS vs going to India and coming back on H4. Will both be CAP exempt and will both stop counting the h1B period?

 

Please advice.
