I'm really confused and need some help.
I'm on H1B which is going to expire on March31st 2009. My will appear for extension on H1B (new petition) in feb2009. I'm going to India and also getting married and want to bring my wife to USA in february 2009 on H4. I have some questions.
If I apply for H4 along with my H1B extension (new petition), which is going to start from 1st April 2009. Can I bring my wife during february after getting my extension or my wife have to wait until April 2009. Remember I have valid visa throughout. My doubt is that since the new petition is starting from April 2009 she will be given visa from that date.
So How do I apply for H4 so that I can bring her during february? should I apply based on my earlier H1B petition?
Thanks a bunch.
