Hi,
My wife is on H1b and will be quitting her job next week to take time off for taking care of our daughter. I am on H1B and my extension is due soon, which should be filed in premium within 2 weeks time. Given this situation, I had a few questions..
1. Do we have to apply for her H4 immediately or we can wait for a week and apply with my extension(in premium)?
2. In case we have to apply immediately, can we apply for another one or club it with my extension application later?
3. What are the issues/concers if there is a gap between her quitting and the new H4 application filing?
4. We are just trying to understand if its possible to avoid the unknown period of wait time for H4 approval, so any other better way out?
She cannot travel out of country immediately, so that is not an option. Any advise is appreciated.
Thanks,
Arpan
