221g issue at consulates; tips

[tusharvk]

Based on the two articles by Murthy this year, the trend to issue 221g is on the rise.

Murthy suggests the following documents for h1b\h4 visas. Pls add to make the list comprehensive.

All the best to the applicants and would appreciate help with a couple of the items as I am unsure where to find those.

- the employment contract / letter of agreement between the H1B employee and the H1B employer (?is this the offer letter and letter of continued employment)?

-the petitioning employer's last two income tax returns and financial statements (for public company this is annual report)

-a notarized list of all the petitioning employer's employees (This list must include names, job titles, start and end dates of employment, salaries and immigration statuses. This request is sometimes limited to employees at the particular jobsite, but is often more expansive.)(prepare to bring your team's org chart)

-the employer's state unemployment wage reports, for the past three quarters(unsure what this is??)

-a letter from the end client, verifying the position and vacancy

-a letter from the end client and a copy of the contract between the petitioning employer and the end client, setting forth the timing and terms for the project
