I'm currently on H1B, and my wife is on a dependent visa (H4). If I get into a US b-school, I think I'll be on a F1 visa, and my wife will be on a F2 visa, which does not allow her to work.

She will have to apply for an H1B if she wants to work here. Is there any student dependent visa out there that allows the spouse of the visa-holder to work without getting an H1B? Can the school help out in any way (e.g. can she use the career services center etc.) ?

To the best of my knowledge, London Business School is the only school I know that allows the partner of a student to work on the dependent visa.

Any help or insight would be tremendously helpful. Thanks much in advance!!!


No student visa allows the Dependant to work, she has to apply for her own work visa(h1b) ... they are other countries where the dependants can work but not in USA, they are not even allowed to work on the campus like the F1 visa holders
