H-4 Visa

The H-4 visa is for close family members of a person legally in the U.S. on an H-3 visa. It allows the spouse and/or unmarried children under the age of 21 to come to the U.S. along with the holder of the H-1, H-2, or H-3 visa, during the duration of that person’s stay.

Like holders of the H-3 visa, they are not allowed to work in the U.S.  School-aged children on an H-4 visa are allowed to attend public schools, however.

Most of the privileges associated with the H-3 visa also apply to the H-4 visa: it expires when the other visa expires. Like the H-3 visa, there are no travel restrictions on the H-4. The holder of an H-4 visa can travel outside the U.S., and reenter at any time, as long as the visa is still valid.
