H1B Stamping first time & planning to get married

USA H1B Visa
1

Hello,

I am planning on going for H1B stamping this August. I am also planning to get married.

  1. Should I get married before or after my H1B stamping?

  2. If I marry first should I go to the Visa Interview with my wife? Or should she go for H4 stamping after I get mine stamped?

Also, my employer has filed for my I-140. Assuming it is approved and If the VO asked if I am planning to stay in the United States what should I tell?

Thanks in advance for your answers!

  1. You should get married before H1B stamping (congrats by the way)

  2. You should go together for H1B and H4

  3. It would have been great if employer applied for I-140 after your H1 / H4 approvals were in place. Now you will need to declare the fact in your DS 160 making you an immigration (intent to immigrate; INA 219b) risk. Can your employer withdraw the petition and reapply?
