prithi karthik Posted January 7, 2016 Report Share Posted January 7, 2016 hi , can anyone please tell me whether I can travel to US when I have a dependent visa (H4 visa) but my husband's is waiting for H1B visa extension approval? Because we heard that for raising dependent visa my husband's H1B should have a validity greater than 6 months. So is the same applicable for travelling to US when I have a dependent visa but my husband's visa has a validity less than 6 months. Thanks, Prithi Link to comment
jairichi Posted January 7, 2016 Report Share Posted January 7, 2016 If your spouse is already in US on H1B you can travel with a valid H4 visa and a copy of his I797. Link to comment
pontevecchio Posted January 8, 2016 Report Share Posted January 8, 2016 No such rule. If you enter in H4 status now your I94 will be till the current H1 petition expiry. Once you arrive you need to file to extend your H4 status based on his pending extension. Link to comment
