Hello Experts,

I have been in US for past 4 years on H1B and am going to Delhi, India for first time to get H1b stamping - Have couple of questions - Would appreciate any suggestions/opinions I can get -

1) I came here on tourist visa and got H1B after 2 months - what should be an appropriate answer if they ask about it?
----- well whatever i sthe right thing you came here for interviews etc, or found someone to gave a job anything.
2) I have my brother living in US on H1B - In D-156 should I declare that - as I am worried it might have a -ve impact - what should I do?

-----Golden rule never lie on the forms, so you have to mention H1 of ur brother.

3) I went to Canada immediately after getting my H1B approved 4 years back to get my H1B stamping - But I was refused and I was told I should go to India for the first time stamping. Should that be of concern? If so, that how should I handle it?
--- mention it on the DS-156 where is asks if you have been refused a visa say yes and give details

4) Would 6 months pay stubs and the last W2 form be sufficient or do I need more because I have misplaced/lost my previous years paystubs and W2s. I am confused as to why do I need to take tax forms (Federal & state taxes) - as I filed for state & federal taxes and have photostat copies of only last year's tax forms (Form 1020 etc.). Should I be needing them??

----last six mths paystubs may be fine, but u need all W2's. You have the option of visiting the local IRS office and obtain the copies of prev returns. Talk to ur employer about generating copies of W2's for u

Please help me with your suggestions/opinions as to what you think is the correct solution to the above questions? Would appreciate all the details that I can get.

Thanks

Thanks waitin_toolong. Your suggestions are going to be of great help. By the way what are my chances (%) of getting the Visa considering the above facts... so that I know what's likely going to be my fate.

Also it will be good if some other people can posts their reviews on the same issues - as these seem to be the some of the most common and confusing issues.

Thanks.

Akash,

My brother is going for H1B stamping at New Delhi in September 2004. He is going to get H1 stamp first time.

Any suggestions ?
