Hello Friends,

I was having H1 visa from company A and my wife has got the H4 visa, but still she is in India. But recently I had to join another company because of lay -offs, and now company B is doing my H1 transfer. Is it still possible for my wife to travel to USA with the same H4 visa which was obtained when I was in company A ? If not, should I have to wait until my H1 is transferred and the passport is stamped ? or there are any alternatives ?
By the way she will be travelling to US for first time.

Your advice will be very helpful.
Thanks,
Vivek Joshi

technicall can travel wiht the same h4 stamped. Better to wait till your transfer is through. If it is a transfer then it is ok. If it is a fresh h1 application (as most people are doing these days due to non availability of sufficient proof that they are indeed receiving pay - verifyable thry paychecks uptill the last 10 days before the appliation was submitted )
 
No Title

then you have to go back to india (out of US)to get your visa stamped

sory for the split msg
