Kaaya Posted February 17, 2016 Report Posted February 17, 2016 Currently my wife is working with X company holding H1 and her job is ending by April 1st, I wanted her to change to h4 just to maintain status my question is: 1. Once my employer starts the process for H4 (any immigration is done in premium ) she is eligible to work until her H4 is approved? 2. Lets say suppose my employer applies to H4 today and gets approved by March 1st I believe she has to stop working from march 1st and not today (can anyone confirm that )? 3. Once h4 process in under way and my wife gets job then her new employer applies for h1 transfer how dose this work ? will h4 application will be stopped ? Dude.. Read more about last action rule.. IMO, If H4 approved later point (after H1b transfer approval), your wife will be on H4..
k2s Posted February 18, 2016 Report Posted February 18, 2016 S,s, whatever status she is,will be changed on that approval date to new status

macha Posted February 18, 2016 Author Report Posted February 18, 2016 Ok 1) no premium option for H4 , while your employer has submitted H4 application and is still pending a result, your wife can work for as long as her current H1 doesnt expire 2) if H4 applied as of today, and you get I797 saying H4 has been approved starting March 1st (even if H1 is valid till April 1st) , H4 is the new status and its effective right away from match 1st 3) while ur employer has applied H4 and its pending approval, meanwhile she finds another job and they apply H1 transfer (i think you may have to inform ur employer to redact their H4 application somehow), considering that and H1 transfer has been applied by new firm, ur wife can keep working well beyond April 1st tricky thing is what if H1 transfer ends up getting rejected after april 1st? may be the new employer can file a motion to reconsider got it thanks buddi do you have any link to the 3 point 3 point is only the concern for me..

argadorn Posted February 18, 2016 Report Posted February 18, 2016 1) H4 premium lo cheyaru (cheyadaniki veelu ledu) 2) Not sure about this 3) first H4 approve ayyaka, then H1 transfer approve chestaru (h4 stop cheyadu uscis) 3) is invalid .....
