My wife came to USA one year back and after she came here we applied for her H-4 extension
as it was expired on Oct'03.
In the mean time, we planned to apply for her H-1. By the time we didn't get her H-4
approved, the employer applied her H-1(H1B1) as "Petition For a NonImmigrant Worker" in
Jun'04, which is be issued for Visa at abroad(India).
While the employer was applying her H-1, she got her H-4 approved with extended I-94.
Now she got her H-1 also approved, but without I-94 attached to that.
When we went to SSN office for SSN number, they have asked for I-94 with Visa class as H-1
NOT H-4.
Is there a way to get I-94 for the new H-1 as she is already in US?
Is there a way to transfer or merge her H4 and H1 and have a H1 status with I-94?
Please suggest any other alternatives.
