I brought her to the consular. My wife and I passport were collected. We're issued H1B & H4 Visa respectively.

Thanks.

Congrats to you and thank God for the grace.

When you get there, please be a good ambassador of the country and represent Nigeria well so as to promote the country in good light.

Congrats
Especially that you could get your wife's application done as well.
Fortunately I think H4 visa holders can work

There's a living in the US thread on nairaland as well .

It's a new land so lots to learn and adapt to.

Trust God to find you your community.
Remember H1B is still temporary so both of you should plan for more permanent employment visas if you I tend to stay in the USA.

Lol. How sir

Congratulations 🎊 👏..Please can you take us through the process of getting H1B from start to finish

Thanks! Thanks!! Thanks!!! I don't think H4 can work immediately. S/he will need Employment Authorization approval before they can work.

I will read the thread.

Ahh... That's long story, but be brief.

My story.

I was referred for the job by someone on Facebook who requested my CV, then the company submitted for the H1B lottery last year, I was selected from the lottery by USCIS. The company filled and do the processes without paying a dime. Then I applied for the Visa with the approved i797. This is my first time applying to US.

Congrats on your achievement. You're correct, only certain H-4 dependent spouses are allowed to work and an approval is required.

Congratulations on your issued visa.
Please I want to find out how long it took the embassy to issue you a visa because I also applied for the same h1B visa last week Tuesday with my wife and son both on H4. To my surprise their visas were issued the same week, last Thursday and Friday.
This prompted me to check the status of mine which indicated APPROVED waiting to be issued 9 days after the interview. Please may I know if you have similar experience or yours was issued early? Thanks.

Congratulations!!! It'll be communicated to you within two weeks you should get it.
