H4 - H1 & GC Issue - Please suggest a solution

Hi,

I am working on an H1 visa.

My wife came to the US on an H4 visa and applied for H1 in October and got approved. But she is not being paid as the consulting company could not find a client.

My H1 & her H4 will be expiring in April 2005 and so i would like to apply for extension of my H1 visa and concerned about whether to extend her H4 or not..

Adding to this I am going to apply for I-140/I-485 very soon. I have all the required W2's & pay stubs. Can some body suggest what is the best way to decalre her status while attaching her to my GC?

If i declare her as being in H1, i do not have her pay stubs as she got her H1 recently and did not have a client.

If i have to declare her as H4, probably i will have to extend her H4 visa along with my H1 as they are going to expire in April 2005.

Please let me know the best approach to this. Also would her status be so inportant if i am applying for the GC through my company. I mean to ask will it be a big prolem if i just declare her H1 status while attacing her to my GC and not provide her pay slips?

Thanks in advance,

Kishore.
