Q.

Adding F1 spouse to an existing GC application

I have a H1-Visa and have an EAD. My wife is on H4 and she doesn't have EAD because I got married after I applied for 485.
I am planning to make her get F1 Visa since she got admission to college. If she gets onto F1, I will be using my EAD to join a new employer.
Once my Priority date gets current, can I join my spouse who will be on F1, to my existing green card application. Will there be any challenges for doing the same..If it's too challenging, I may opt for extending my H1 Visa
Thanks
