H4 Visa : Person\Entity Paying for your trip?

[suyesh.siroya]

Hello,

I have planned to take my H1B VISA appointment along with my dependent family members for H4. For myself, my Spouse & Kid I have mentioned "Person\Entity Paying for your trip?" as US Petitoner.
Is it correct?

My Employer is paying my travel cost & will be giving reimbursement for my dependent travel cost after 6 months.

I am confused what exactly should go into "Person\Entity Paying for your trip?" for me in my H1B visa application?
And for my dependent in H4 visa application?

Available Options are:
1. U.S Petitoner
2. Self
3. Other Company/Organisation
4. Other Person


Please guide me to enter suitable option.

-Thanks in Advance,
Suyesh

If your employer will pay for them, you can mention it as "U.S employer". If not, then you can mention it as "Self". Entering "Self" will not have any impact.

Thanks for your reply.
Yes my employer will be paying for dependent travel cost as well. But "U.S Employer" option is not available to select in the given options. SO should I select U.S Petitioner?

Yes.

This is my opinion not legal advice.
