Friends,
I have a question on H4 to H1 and then H4 to H1. The following is the situation. My friend's spouse came on H4 to USA. Before coming to USA she applied for H1 from india. Her H1 got approved after her arrival in USA on H4. So She applied for Change of Status COS and got approved. She worked for about a year. Then she went to India for family reasons, and got her H1 visa stamped. Her H1 visa is valid till end of this year. After she got her H1 visa stamped, her husband's company sent him to India. They both were in india for about 7 months. Now her husband's company sent him back to USA on H1.
1. Now the question is Can she come to USA on her H1 visa? or She must get her H4 Visa and come to USA?
2. If she come's on H4 visa can she apply for COS again to H1? How long does it take?
3. If she come's on H1 visa will there be lot of questions on Port of Entry? If she can't find a job then can she apply for COS to H4?
Please advice which one is better? Any suggestion is appreciated.
