Thanks in advance.
Currently, my spouse has H1B1, and I am also H1B1. I want to change my status to H4 since I will go back to school. I have some questions.

1: What documents should I mail to USCIS?

2: In form I-539, Part 3.3 - Is this application based on a separate petition or application to give your spouse, child or parent an extension or change of status? Which one should I select (NO or YES)?

3: When will be the last day of my H1B1? and Once I get the first Notice, not final approval notice, Can I go to school for study?

Thank you again.

Have a nice day.

Thank you Ginnu,

As to second question:
I do not know how to answer the Part 3.3. whic one I should choose :NO or Yes .
As to third question:
I am wondering when I can tell my company that I will quit my job, and can I go to school before I get approval.

Thanks again.

----------that is upto you
and can I go to school before I get approval.
-------- I think after H4 approval , better ask your lawyer
Thanks again.
Part 2 application type
B: (tick mark that) and then write H4
Part 3 prosessing Information
item 3, tick YES
item 4: write the name of your spouse (as your H4 is going to be based on his H1)
