Neal:

An H-1B visa is not necessary in order to obtain H-4 status for your spouse. However, you must be in H-1B status - meaning that your I-94 card must indicate that you have H-1B status. Your spouse must provide proof of your status, as well as the exsistence of the marriage.

Please feel free to contact me with any additional questions.

You would have to be here legally on H-1B status for your wife to get H-4. Why did you not apply to change your status in the U.S. to H-1B? What is your current immigration status?
