If you already have a US H1-B visa petition in your name, can you also apply for US H4 dependent visa?

You'll need to provide more information.  Your question mentions three different types of visa -- R1, B1 & I1.  These are very different types of visas.\n\nIf a US company wants to hire you, you generally need an H1-B visa.  You and the company will have to work that.

If you do this, you will be deemed as entering fraudulently which can not only lead to your H1B being denied, but also create significant problems with any future plans you may have with immigrating permanently. The fact that your F-1 is stamped in your passport is inconsequential -- the officer at the border can pull up your records (which indicate you have a petition pending), and then it would snowball downhill from there.\n\nYou need to wait until your H1B is approved, then you may leave, apply for the H1B visa stamp at the U.S. consulate in your home country, and then re-enter without a problem. \n\nGood luck

This is a tricky one, Your not supposed to be able to get an interview until Oct 01, However if you call the US embassy in you country of residence, they may give you an interview.\nWhen getting mine, I applied for an interview in May, got an appointment for Aug, and the H1b was also issued in Aug, 2 months before it should have been valid. This made the visa 3 years and 2 months. \n\nGood luck, it's tough to get into the US LEGALLY.

If it is a multiple entry Visa, yes.  If not, no.

Having a legitimate visit to the UK should not affect your application for an H1B.  \nHowever, if you mean to ask if you can apply for the H1B at the US Embassy in the UK -- you'd be better advised to apply in your home country.  It is generally more difficult for applicants of any type of temporary visa to qualify when they apply outside of their own country.  The Embassy official is less familiar with the circumstances and documentation from a different country and would more likely have to deny the application if it is less certain or obvious.

Yes, you can petition for your wife to become a resident like you, but it will take time. Just like it took time for you to become a resident, it will take her too. Can she come into the US? Only as a visitor. You can probably get her a B1/B2 Visa, as long as she qualifies. She can come and stay for no more than 6 months on this visa. If she overstays, works, does anything illegal, or in any other way violates the terms of the visa, the visa is automatically canceled and she will not be eligible for her residence. If she does not have a visa yet, she cannot come into the US.

You've asked the exact same question under four different names, and multiple times under each name. What is your problem? You lied in an attempt to gain an advantage on your visa application. You have upset your wife. You will pay the price. Now go away!

You asked this question as "Monsoon05" and also as "Jk" - so you are still pretty good at lying and playing games with the system.  Do you think the answer will change?\n\nWhen people write to complain that they can't get a visa to come to the US, or there are long delays in their cases, it is because of people like you who have intentionally lied to get some sort of immigration benefit from the US government.\n\nYou lied that you were not married so it would be easier to get an H1b visa, then you bought a fraudulent marriage certificate to support your claim, then you applied for your wife to come to the US and now she is leaving you and you are afraid of your past deeds - good! You are an example of everything that is wrong with our immigration system - the loop holes and technicalities that are exploited by citizens of other countries, who then enter the US and lie again to get other benefits to which they are not entitled, then cheat on their taxes, so that someone else is paying for everything. In this case, I hope for nothing more, or less, than karma.

Yes !.(A person can have multiple H1, but can work for only one company at a time.)

This is my best guess, not guarantees:\n214(B) does not apply to a L Visa.  The L visa allows for dual intent and hence it is reasonable that you might eventually petition to live permanently in the United States.  However, if you were denied a B1/B2 there was probably a good reason.  The Consular Officer will consider the circumstances that lead to the initial denial in your upcoming interview.  Please ask a more detailed question explaining why you were denied under 214(b).

You can apply to school and get an F-1 visa. this gives you OPT /EAD card which allows you to work legally in the  U.S. and have time to find an H-1B sponsor. You can get a J-1 only if your job is one of the prequalified jobs. You can only do a change of status if you have a J-1, F-1, L-1 or other qualified work visas. There are many people here on work visas (nonimmigrant) that have also applied for green cards. As long as you are in the country legally and eventually apply for your green card that's fine. If you are here illegally an marry a U.S.Citizen you still have a shot. If you apply for a work visa and they ask you your intent you say to work. Trust me no immigration officer is shocked to know you want to stay forever.\n\nP.S. No need to get nasty people. With the exception of American Indians we all come from, or are immigrants from another country.

Bear in mind that the basis for an H1B is that you are highly skilled, not necessarily highly schooled. \n\nYou will need to find a reputable company that is interested enough in your qualifications that they will petition for you to come to the US to work for them.  You cannot apply for an H1B visa on your own.\n\nSee the following USCIS site for further information:\n\nhttp://www.uscis.gov/graphics/howdoi/h1b.htm#apply

if she has graduated college have her apply for an H1B depending where shes from

ur change of status will compromise ur petition to migrate to the US and you should have the US government informed. dont try to be dishonest by not declaring that u have married since they have ways of finding out (even thru medical check up of a womans uterus they'd know if you've given birth) since ur mother is still not a legal immigrant in the US, this will further delay the process.if you still want to go to the USA apply for a tourist visa since having children and a husband in ur home country is enough for u to prove that u have intentions to come back to ur home country. BTW, u can check the status of ur petition online.. keep ur case number and infos ready.

It will depend on what type of visa.  If it's an H1, the child's age at the time of visa application counts; if it's an E immigrant visa, then the age at the date of the petition filing rules.

Most usually if you are receiving them in one state you will also qualify in other states, But I think you have to apply just like you did originally.. Just take any paperwork from here, with you, when you go.  Good luck hon, Not everyone thinks like that. Some of us have been there and understand.. Good luck and GOD bless. {:-)\n\n<><
