Hello.
I just got married a girl who lives in London (Indian), I have a GC since 18 months. She has an approval for H1, but is afraid to go to visa in London as she heard many rejects recently. I am looking to explore options to bring her immediately, can anyone offer some suggestions please?
Thanks

H1 is the best option. As a LPR, you have to first file for I-130 (takes ~3-4 years to get approved) and after it gets approved, she has to go to the nearest consulate and get her GC via CP. With a H1, she can join you right away and also be employed when she is here. Good Luck!
 
Thanks

Thanks Ari,
My wife has an approved H1, but we are worried about the rejects/queries in London for similar H1 visas.

I had an H1-B processed in London in May. If your wife is approved and the paperwork is in order, she shouldn't have any problems. Do you know the basis of rejects/queries?

Good luck!

For her, H1 is almost the only way to come to the US under this
circumstance. I heard some case that h1 stamp was rejected at
consulate, but I guess it's minor case.
She needs to get it, otherwise she can not come to the US.
 
London Consulate asked her to go to India

The consular officer in London asked her to go to India, with a note saying " Could not assess credentials based on school in UK". She has a diploma from UK school, and finishing up her MS in IT from London. So, we are trying for the interview appointment for Chennai Consulate. And, as you all might know the dates are not available for Chennai consulate.
