I've applied H1B for my wife in this year (2014) quota , her application got picked in lottery and now application is in "initial review".
Now , I want to bring her on H4 without waiting till October 2014.
I'm planning to send her to H4 stamping. Can someone suggest me , If this is legal and she can travel to US if her H4 gets stamped.
What happens if her H1 approves before she travel ? Can she still travel on H4 ?
Thanks,

As she was outside US during H1 filing her H1 , even if approved would be approved as consular process. In order for her to move from H4 to H1 while in US, a Change of Status has to be applied .
This is my opinion not legal advice.
