H4 visa stamping issues for a person who has an approved H1 petition

[way_to_gc]

If a person(my wife) has an approved H1 petition thru' an indian software firm, would there be an issue if this person goes for an H4 stamping in India?

Note: This person has an approved H1 petition, but NO visa stamping for this H1 on her passport.
(We need to do this as the software firm cannot send this person for H1 visa stamping for the next 6 months.)

1. Is there a way the visa officer at the consulate will know that my wife has an approved H1 petition when she goes for H4 stamping ?

2. Is there a possibility that H4 is denied due to the approved H1 petition my wife currently has ?

3. If the H4 visa gets approved, will it VOID or Cancel her approved H1 petition?

Thanks,
-M

May be they know or they don't. But it's not big deal.

Should not be denied. Having approved H1 doesn't necessarily mean she has to be on H1.

3. If the H4 visa gets approved, will it VOID or Cancel her approved H1 petition?

H1 and H4 are different visa. Denial of H4 doesn't cancel H1.
