H4 stamping - Prinicapl appplicant not traveling

Dear all,

My wife is going for H4 visa stamping in India at Chennai consulate.
As I am not travelling with her and as I am principal applicant do I need to give her my H1 I-797 notice of approval ORIGINAL? Or can she carry copy of it? She is carrying her H4 original.
If I give her my ORIGINAL H1 I-797, is there any problem for me to stay in USA without H1 document?

Also visa in my passport has expired. What is the risk of my wife's H4 visa stamping, if I give copy of my passport with out valid H1 visa?

I am on 8th year H1b extension.

Thanks,
panjan04
 
Someone please reply...I'm also in the same situation and I'm flying next week.
When my husband contacted his company's imigration officer she says that the principal applicant cannot stay in U.S without his orginal approval notice .
I'm totally confused...please help
