First of all, I thank the team who put together this useful website.
Here's my situation and I would appreciate your help.
I am currently on H1 B visa (for the last 5 years) working continously in USA. I've applied for my Green Card in Dec 2003 (still in the backlog processing center). I got married in Jan 2005. My wife got her H1-B visa just before marriage. She is here in USA for the last 8 months, but her employer still did not find her a good placement (she is on the bench). The questions I have are
1) Is it OK for her legally, to be on H1-B without a job? Will I be in trouble?
2) If she has decides to change to H4, can the change of status be done inside USA?
3) I have to get my H1-B stamping (renewal) on my passport in Jan 2006. Should I wait until then and get her H4 stamped?
Thank you in advance for your replies. Appreciate your time
Regards
