Here you will find all the information about the same. In this case, you must file a petition with the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS). To be eligible for an H-1B visa, you must have a bachelor's degree or equivalent in a field related to the position you will be filling. But now the question is, what is the US visa process for altering the F-2 visa into an H-1B? Right! Let's discuss this in detail.

  2. Why Do You Want To Change Your Visa Status From F-2 To H-1b There are a few reasons why someone might want to change their visa status from F-2 to H- 1B. The most common reason is that the person has found a job that requires them to have an H-1B visa. Other reasons could include wanting to change jobs or extend their stay in the United States. Difference Between US F-2 And H-1b Visa There are a few key differences between F-2 US visas and H-1B U.S. visas. •First, F-2 visas are only available to the spouses and children of F-1 visa holders, while H-1B visas are available to highly skilled workers in a wide range of occupations. •F-2 visa holders are not permitted to work in the United States, while H-1B holders are. •Finally, F-2 visa holders can stay in the US for as long as their F-1 visa holder spouse or parent maintains their status. In contrast, H-1B visa holders are typically granted visas for three years, with the option to extend for an additional three years. Simple Steps To Change My U.S. Visa Status From F-2 To H-1b Are you on an F-2 visa and looking to change your status to H-1B? If so, you can follow a few simple steps to make the US visa process as smooth as possible. •First, you will need to file a petition with the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS). Your employer must file this petition and be accompanied by the appropriate filing fee. •Next, you will need to submit a completed I-539 form and any required supporting documentation to USCIS. •Once your petition has been approved, you will be issued an H-1B visa USA, allowing you to stay in the United States for up to three years. Switching from F-2 to H1-B visa can be a great way to stay in the United States and work in your chosen field. However, it's important to remember that H1-B visa is a non-immigrant visa, which means it is not a path to U.S. citizenship. To change your visa status from F-2 to H-1B, you will submit the required documents to the USCIS: •A completed Petition for a Non-immigrants Worker (Form I-539)

  4. Restrictions On F-2 Dependent Work Visa USA Holders The H-1B visa is a non-immigrant visa that temporarily allows U.S. employers to employ foreign workers in specialty occupations. The United States is great for living, working, and raising a family. However, your options for living and working in the U.S. are limited if you're not a citizen or a permanent resident. One option for non-citizens is to obtain a dependent work visa USA, such as an F-2 visa. This allows you to live and work in the U.S. as long as you remain married or the child of a U.S. citizen or permanent resident. However, there are some restrictions on F-2 dependent work visa USA holders. For example, you cannot work unless your spouse or parent has a job requiring assistance. Additionally, you may only be able to attend school part-time. While the restrictions on F-2 dependent visa holders can be frustrating, they are in place to protect your status in the U.S. If you violate the terms of your visa, you could be deported and barred from returning to the U.S. If you're considering moving to the U.S. on an F-2 dependent visa, research the restrictions and make sure you can comply with them. Otherwise, you could be separated from your family and forced to return to your home country. Eligibility Criteria For H1-B Visa A yearly limit of 85,000 new H1-B visas (with 20,000 reserved for workers with advanced degrees). Some have criticised the H1-B visa as a way for U.S. companies to hire cheaper foreign labour. But it can also be used to hire highly-skilled workers who can help a company compete in the global marketplace. Several eligibility criteria must meet for an H1- B visa. These include: •The applicant must have a bachelor's degree or higher from an accredited institution. •A job offer from a U.S. employer in a specialty occupation is a must. •Must demonstrate the necessary skills and qualifications to perform the job. •Must have a valid passport. •The applicant must show they have the financial resources to support themselves in the US. •Should have a good moral character and have no criminal convictions. •Must be healthy and not have infectious diseases. •The applicant must be willing to comply with all the terms and conditions of their visa.
