As a dependent H-4 you will lose this status once you divorce the principal beneficiary H-1B spouse. Your U.S. children can only petition for you once they are 21 years or older. You need to change your status from H-4 to possibly H-1B (if you qualify) or some other visa. Contact my office for a free consultation.
