Thanks for your suggestion damauli_guy. The reason I don't want to apply is because I have full time school, everything covered by scholarships, and I also get stipend. School is already overwhelming so I won't have time for another job, and टि पि एस will most likely expire by the time I graduate. So I don't see how it'll benefit me.

But I'm strongly considering applying for the wife. Will this create any problems later? I read some threads here but couldn't find good details about F-2 applying टि पि एस. Given that my wife gets टि पि एस with इ ए डि, can she join one of those IT consultancies and get training/job through them?
