F2 Status Change
Hi
I would be coming to US for pursuing my further studies along with my wife.
As her status would be F2 , we are looking options for her:
1. F1 conversion
2. How easy is to get H1b for her as she has around 6 to 7 yrs of experience in IT.
Any suggest is highly appreciated.
Thanks

H1b for health care profession" resident"
I applied for H1b visa as I will be a resident " physician in training". Under " education limited license" the petition was filed for 3 years " the length of the training program". But I am approved for only 1 year. When I asked my lawyer " who filed the petition" he said it because the license is " restricted". Still I know people in my situation who got it for 3 years.
Do you have any idea about that?
