HI
This is vc. I am on h1b and the labor is filed 2007 and in pending more than a year(query). I married in oct 2008 and currently working some client xxxx. I am planning to get my wife here in march. She wanted to go for MS in comp science full time. I know the limitations like no opt, funding on doing MS on h4. Following are my questions. If some one could guide me that would be great help.
1) I am in dilemma whether to get her on h4 in March or wait till august and try for F1 in india , if F1 gets rejected she still have a chance to apply for h4.
2)Should I get her here on h4 in march and change to F1 after first sem or so? If so, as my gc is on process would that effect for her h4 to f1 conversion (we can say initially we wanted to be in this country for long, but as things r taking time we decided not to go for gc. Is this reliable answer?)
3) What is the time period is needed for conversion from h4 to f1? Can we try this for 2009 Aug? r should we wait a for a while
4) As my labor is pending what is the safe way to do? As we know economy crisis and new visa rules, I am looking for good advice.
