  • H4 Dropbox - IWP eligibility: H4 to H1 to H4

    Hi

    I got my H4 visa stamping in India in 2012 and I came to USA in 2012.
    I got my H1 approved in 2013 and I worked for about a year. No H1 visa stamping, just status chnage from H4 to H1.
    I switched back to H4 in 2014.

    Note: My H4 & H1 petitioner is same. My H4 visa has expired with in the last 12 months.

    Now I'm planning to visit India and I have to get my H4 visa stamping.

    Am I eligible for dropbox option for my H4 visa? as I switched from H4 to H1 and then to H4.

        Yes I believe you may be. But even if one is eligible, the consulate can always call for interview. Did your spouse change employer between the original H1 and now?

        This is my opinion not legal advice.

          Thank you for responding on this so quickly.

          No, my spouse didn't change the employer between the original H1 and now. Recently my spouse utilized H1B dropbox and it was successful.

          So, I can go for drop box but if consulate wants to interview me, then they can call me for interview after submitting my documents at dropbox. is that correct?

          Just wondering what is best given my situation. I mean should I go for drop box or should i directly schedule an interview?

          Thank you

            I believe you are eligible, if you have time then no harm going through the drop box.

            This is my opinion not legal advice.
