maintaining H4 status without H1 holder in USA
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I am on extended H1 visa which is approved until Oct 2007. I am going to complete 6 years on 10th auguast 2006. My son is studing in the college and he has H4 visa. He will complete his 21 years on 15th March 2009.
Now due to personal reason I am going back to India at the end of May 2006 and will not return back in near future.
My company will not cancle my H1. Also my company is continuing my GC proccess.
My son will stay in USA. He has also extended H4 visa until Oct 2007.
My questions are:
How long he can be on H4 visa in USA?
When he need to change his visa status to F1? I am planning to keep him on H4 as long as he can, as fee structure is very high on F1 compare to H4.
What documents he has to produce when he will apply for F1?
Will my GC process will be affected due to his stay on H4 in my absence?
