Legal Question in Immigration Law in Illinois

US employer wants to sponsor my H1-B visa, while we (My wife and I) are currently waiting for my F4 Immigration visa Priority date (Apr 2002)to be current and have my interview.

so is Entering US and working in it with H1-B visa going to effect my F4 visa? and If I'm called to the interview while I'm in US, this may effect the F4 process?

Since you can have immigrant intent with an H-1B visa, it should not affect your pending family based case. However, if the I-130 has already indicated you are outside the U.S., then you would have to get the file transferred out of the NVC or it might delay your adjustment of status once you become current. Or, another option, return home for your immigrant visa interview.
