I am on H1B visa. Can my fiance schedule an appointment for H4 visa interview when her L1 visa is currently under process? Because, she plans to take up L1 if her MNC company finds her a project at the place where I live in US or else come to US in H4 visa. We are concerned whether the scheduling of H4 visa interview will cancel her L1 visa petition.

Thanks in advance...
 
Once you are married, your wife can apply for an H4. If L1 petition is approved or under process, it does not affect her H4. Once she gets L1 stamped on her passport, the H4 will be revoked.

Please check with her employer if she can start working on L1 approved petition when she is in US on H4. I think it can be done by filing 'Change of Status' form. If not, she will have to come back to India and get L1 stamped here.
