Hi,
I am Canadian working in the USA under TN visa. My wife & son are both on TD, all are valid until December 31, 2008.
My company has switched me to H1-B visa on April 2008. The company says that I have to go to Canada to get the H1-B visa from the US consulate in Canada before October 1.
- How true is this? Any body familiar with the process?
-When is the best time to apply for H-4 for my wife & son? (Now, based on the above approval?, after I receive my H1-B and before December 31, or "instantly" at the US consulate once I get my H1)
- Should they go to Canada for the same thing, or can we adjust their status while here.
- Can they join me in that trip to Canada, and they can go back using their valid TD status, while I am on H1 then, then, we file an adjustment for their status while here in US?
