I am a software engineer on an H1B visa. My company was willing to put up with the fact that I could only start in October because of how the visa works. However my wife can't work on her H4 visa. The only way for her to work in the US would be to find an H1B sponsor, which is much, much harder for people who don't work in tech. This is increasingly frustrating, so we are considering moving back.

H4 visa holders should be allowed to work. You'll find plenty of horror stories on the internet.
