Yes of course! In fact it becomes easier for h4 when they attend interview with H1B. Keep in mind separate ds 160 is required for both. Add the h4 as a dependent while booking interview and attend together on 1 date.
How much time does it take to get an H4 visa in mean the slot booking time and also how much time does it take to get the passport after stamping? Pls help
Hi, i am having B1/B2 visa already and I got an H1B and ready to book a dropbox. Due to new portal issues, its not allowing me to add dependents and asking to book submit 3 different applications. If i book 3 different slots and my passport is with US Embassy, can my dependents go for H4 drop box with my I797 xerox copy with all set of documents. Will be this valid ?
Hi mam ! My husband's visa(h1b) got expired in 2021 itself but still he is in usa because he has his work permit for next three years so whether it affects to get my visa(h4) ? Because i have an interview next month in delhi pls help
From what I understood from your question is that your husband's H1b stamping has expired. And his i797 is still valid for 3 yrs. There should be no problem for you to get H4. It's totally fine. All the best.
Hi mam! Sorry to bother you again! Is i94 is mandatory because my husbands passport got expired in 2021 itself so he got a new passport which doesnt has stamping.. so he doesnt have i94 and no stamping in new passport too we dont know what to do now pls help us mam
I have applied for B1B2 visa in 2014 through some travel agent they filled the DS160 for me... But it was rejected at that due to that I don't have strong ties with my origin country it was my old passport... now I have my new passport...Can I apply for H4 visa now with my wife H1B application? But I don't remember what was filled in old DS 160 by that agent even I don't have the contact... Can you please tell me what should I do?
Hello ma'am! Currently my husband is in US. He is staying there from last April, 2022. On this 14th March I'm having my H4 interview in Delhi US Embassy. But seeing your video today I'm worrying about a doubt that my husband doesn't have i 94, rather he is having i-129. Are these two documents same? Or i 94 is mandatory? Can you please clear this doubt?
Hey! I 94 is a document generated when a person enters US (at the port of entry). Your husband for sure has this as it’s impossible to not have i94. Ask him to download it. It’s available on www.cbp.gov/I94
Hi my husband sent me i797 with old address in it.. Recently he changed address and 1 more year extended on visa.. Still he didn't get latest i797. Is it a problem if I take old i797 to the interview? . Because he didn't get the new one. And my interview is in may month 1st week.. Pls suggest me

Hi mam , got H1b visa in Nov 23 , can i apply to H4 my family wife & baby .. i am in india , planning to travel in March along with family , it is possible or not ? It my first H1B..Thanks in Advance
Hi I had my H1B dropbox renewal on Feb 1st and Feb 11th - admin processing and hoping it will change to issued on Feb 14th. I dont think we ll have my passport at hand by Feb 15th. My wife's H4 consulate appointment is on Feb 15th and i don't think we might have a copy of H1b visa stamped page at the time of interview. Is that a required document? If the application says - "Visa issued", is that fine enough to attend the H4 visa interview (given they will the H1b applicants approval status on file already). Should she carry a pic of the CGI portal saying - "Visa issued"? What are the chances of 221G for her?
She needs to carry your approved i797. That will work. She doesn't need your passport. If asked she can say that it's still with consulate. Cgi status will not be required. Just have a copy of your i797. All the best!
Hi. I am in US and my wife and child in India. So by "copy" of i797 you mean my wife can take a photocopy of my i797 or do I need to courier the original one to her in India ?
Hi , myself and my spouse are going for the interview next week , my spouse got only i-797 not i-94 since she haven’t reached usa , both of us are planning to go for interview on same day and planning to fly on same day , in this case i dont have i-94 of my spouse please advise
I got h1b stamped last month and i am traveling to us in Dec.. And I filed h4 for my wife and baby after that, and got a consular date for next week. So is that any problem going for h4 interview when i am in india?
Hi, I have a question. I want to process an H4 visa for my wife, I have an H2A visa. but I want to know if my wife also has to work when she comes to the United States?
You can carry your husbands approved 1797. And mention that he is yet to travel to USA and that he has already completed the visa stamping process. Its not going to be an issue!

No problem at all. Just take a copy of his latest approved i797. And rest documents remain same. Have a copy of his last i94. You are all set. There will be no problem
Hey! There is no requirement for birth certificate. You don’t need it. You don’t need 10th certificate also. You can keep it with you as a secondary document. Marriage certificate is most most important. And sometimes the date of birth is also mentioned on the marriage certificate. Even if it’s not don’t worry!
Depends on which consulate you are attending. But usually within 7 days and even less than that. If visa is approved they will tell you "approved" in the interview itself.
