  • H1B extension and new H4 at the same time while travelling.

    Hello there,

    Here is my situation and I could use some help/advice's.

    My current H1B is expiring on Sept 2013. I am getting married in May and I have booked the H4 dates for my wife in May. I have my current H1b stamped until Sept 2013. My employer suggested that I apply my H1b extension in April under PP and get it approved before I leave, have my wife take the new 797 for her VISA. He does not want me to go stamping on the new H1B Visa, but instead, show the new 797 @ the port of the entry and get the 3yr I-94.

    Is this a good idea? If not, what do you guys suggest? if anyone has been in this situation before, please advise.

    I am confused if I should apply for the extension before going to India or not.

    thanks in advance

    Yes, this is possible.
    This is my opinion and not legal advice.
