Spouses of H-1B Visa holders can work in United States

USCIS will start accepting applications for work visas from H-1B spouses from May 26

Hyderabad: As a major relief to thousands of Indians, the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) will now allow spouses of those who are in the country with H-1B visas to work.

The USCIS will start accepting applications for work visas from H-1B spouses from May 26 onwards. Under existing laws, spouses of H-1B visa holders, many of whom are Indians, are not eligible to work. However, once USCIS approves the Form I-765 and the H-4 dependent spouse receives an Employment Authorisation Card, he or she may begin working in the United States.
