I am on H1b visa, green card I-140 approved. My Wife is doing masters on h4 dependent visa and we plan to apply change of status to F1 visa as they offered graduate assistantship
1)Is it going to adversly effect our GC process when I include her in I-485 stage being on f1-visa
2)Can i still claim her as my dependent when we file taxes if she has 12000$ as income when she accepts assistant ship as she will convert to F1 VISA? Can we file taxes jointly?
3)Does she have option to change back to H4 dependent visa when situation arise?
4)Can she claim OPT after F1 as she has 3 semesters left?
5)There is a voluntary work at her school without pay. Can she accept it?
6)Does she have to get her visa stamped if she travels abroad? She currently has H4 visa stamp
Thanks and have a nice day
