Hi,

I had applied for a revalidation at chennai consulate about a 2 months ago and after getting interviewed at chennai consulate, my visa was denied due 221(g) to a difference in w2 and LCA.

Also during the 221(g) denial, the consulate kept all my original I797 and LCA as such my current employer who needs me tied up with a body shopper to get me another H1 (premium) from this body shopping company. Basically I will be working for my previous company, but now in the capacity as as a
consultant since I could not get a revalidation from my current company.

Based on the above history, my questions are:

1. Will I have any problem in getting a new H1 as I have to appear to the consulate for an interview sooner or later, and i have to show them that I will be consulting for my previous company on a project and knowing the fact that I was given a 221(g) while employed with my previous employer?

2.Will my past employment create any issues as I took pay cuts to the extent of 25% in my previous employment?

3.What additional steps should I take to ensure that this time my visa get's processed smoothly?

4. What kind of probable questions might I face?

5. Any other suggestions/advice will be appreciated

Thanks,

Hi sushil,

Was the pay mentioned on your paycheck / W-2 lesser than what they mentioned in the LCA? If the paycheck value is greater than what is mentioned in the LCA, will this still be a problem? Please enlighten.
 
Did consulate asked for W2 and LCA? Because as fir as i know you need not give W2. But last two pay slips should be fine for stamping purpose.
