Hi All,

A friend of mine recently got laid off (working on H1 VISA) & he wants to send his wife to India until he gets another job. He wants to know if his wife would require to get her H4 visa stamped again in the case of his moving to a new company? Her H4 visa is valid till May, 2004. Would it be a problem for her to travel back to US on old H4 visa? Any help would be appreciated. Please mail me your suggestion directly at ma_agarwal@hotmail.com.:confused:
Thanks,
Manish

---- NO, she can come back to US with valid H4 visa sticker; it does not matter if she has the old company name on her Visa sticker
Her H4 visa is valid till May 2004. Would it be a problem for her to travel back to US on old H4 visa?
--- No problem, your friend should find a new job by H1 transfer and maintain his H1b status.
