  • H4 Stamping - Kid's Passport going to Expire in jan 2012

    Hi,
    I live in the US from the last couple of months. My first H1 expired and i got renewal up to sep. 2013, I have valid I-797 and I-94 up to sep. 2013. I want to bring my family here, so planning to H4 stamping for them. There is no issue with my wife passport but my kids passport is going to expire in Jan. 2012. Will they stuck or get any issue at consulate at India or POE at US. 2nd thing is how long my kid will get visa and I-94 Validity.

    Looking forward for suggestion and what would be better way to do.

    If the H4 interview goes well, then they will be able to get the visa. The only problem is, sometimes the visa will be issued only till the passport expiry date (Irrespective of the petition validity). Even if the visa is issued until the petition expiry date, the officer at the POE may issue an I-94 only till the passport expiry date or the visa expiry date. So it is advisable that you renew your kid's passport before applying for H4. The passport can be renewed 1 year in advance.
