Help! -- Wife H1B stamping in India and husband in OPT-H4 COS!

[madan123]

Hi folks,

Need to pick your brains on this issue. I need urgent advice.
We got married a couple of months back within the US. My wife is planning to go for her H1B stamping at the Mumbai Consulate, India.
I have recently applied for an OPT to H4 change-of-status (COS). I haven't received the approval notice yet, but I did get the initial case pending receipt.

Is it safe for my wife to go get her H1B stamped with my COS still pending?
Or should she wait till I receive my H4 approval notice to visit India for her stamping?
Won't the Consulate Office have a problem that she is getting her H1B stamped while her husband is applying for a COS from OPT to H4?

She is working with a reputed company from past 1 year and hence there shouldnt be any problem of any sort of documents or anything from that point of view.

It would be great if you guys can help me out here.
Thanks in advance for any info and advice

Your COS has got nothing to do with her H1 stamping. She can go ahead without any problems as far as the issue presented goes.
