Applying for H1B this year; is spouse passport essential?

Hello,

I am applying for H1B visa this year - April 2013. My spouse doesn’t have passport. I will be applying for her shortly. Will it affect my chances of getting the visa.

Thank you

It should not impact your chances of getting the visa. But if you are still worried about it you can get the passport prior to your filling in April.
