Hi All,
My wife is on L2 and is working on L2 EAD. Both myself and my wife are on L1 and L2 extension where our I-94 is valid till May 2015. This year (2103) my wife company applied her H1 and it got approved. My wife is currently in India on vacation and was planned to come back on Sept 20th 2013. However due to some personal emergency, she extended her leave and now she is coming to US on Sept 28th 2013 and reporting to work on September 30th 2013. I hear that from Oct 1st 2013, her H1 will be active and L2 automatically becomes invalid. Is this true? Please advise
Is she still good to come to US on L2 visa (her L2 visa is stamped in India) on Sept 28th and continue to work on L2 till Sept 30th and change to H1 from Oct 1st ? If yes, does she need to do anything for change of status and also do I need to let my employer know that my spouse has changed from L2 to H1 and revoke her L2? Please advise.
Please note her current employer where she is working on L2 has applied for H1B in 2013 and got approved.
