H4 to H1....please reply

[pn11]

I had applied for H1 visa in 2008 , but it was in pending state as I was handed form 221(g) and I haven’t received any replies from consulate yet, assuming that it is denied. so I have decided to apply for H4 visa & then I will again apply for new H1.
What are the problems I would face with this decision and how long this whole process can take? What are the chances of me getting H1?
I also have B1/B2 visa will that get cancelled out if i apply for H4?

Thanks for bringing up this website...the contents are very helpful

No issues for H4.
New H1 approval depends on the employer and job.

B1/B2 will not be canceled.
