  • F1 Visa status and GC

    Hi,

    I'm currently in H1B and my wife is on H4 dependendt visa. As per our
    plan, my wife is joing school in Sep and converting to F1 status.

    In a sudden change, my employer wants to start my GC processing.No step
    has been done so far.

    My queries:

    1. Do we proceed with my wife status change to F1?
    2. When can I include my wife to my GC process?
    3. are there any complications, if she is in F1 status (as elligibity says
    you are not going to be immigrant)?

    4. should she stay in H4 and continue the studies as GC process
    will be easier?


    Kinldy reply at the earlist as I have to reply to my employer.

    thanks
    venky

    Wife comes into the GC process as an immigrant only after filing I485. Until then, you can go ahead with your Labor and I140.

    I am not a lawyer and you need to consult with one to validate any info posted on the forum and discuss your case specifics. H1b Question? Read the FAQ first.

      Thanks. When I file I485 , if my wife is in F1 status, can I be able to include her ?

      Or she should convert to H4 or apply on H1 on her own ?

      thanks in advance,
      venky
