H4 Visa documents and details

[redearth]

Hi All,
I am getting married next month and I need the details for the documents which I will need to get my wife's H4 visa.
I tried searching on the us visa site, but could not find it.

Also I heard that US coulsulate's are giving hard time in getting the H4 dependent visa.

Please help me in finding the right docs.
I will be greatfull if you can share some experiences.

Thanks and regards
redearth

Your wife will need:

Marriage certificate,
Your ORIGINAL I-797 H1 approval notice,
Copy of LCA filed by your employer,
Copies of any other supporting letters filed by your employer for your H1,
Your previous tax years returns/W2 for upto 3 years,
Your current pay stubs to prove that your employer is paying what is promised in LCA,
Copies of bank statements,
Pictures of your workplace.

Also be prepared to provide a list of other H1 employees in your company along with their job titles and salaries. This can be a sealed document to be opened only by the consular official.
