H1B Petition New filling

[psm_hope]

Hi Team,

I have one question, please see below:

 

I had my H1B transfer denial in month of June 2016 and I had to come back to my home country. Now, I found one new employer who is willing to file my H1B petition in premium processing.

Do I need to inform them about my last petition denial?

If I do, Is it mandate to mention my last petition denial while filling new H1B?

 

I didn't stayed in US unlawfully.

I was present in US till my last date of I-94. And I was out of status only for 5 days which is negligible.

Still we need to mention about my last H1B petition denial explicitly in I-129 form?

 

Please clarify my query asap.

Appreciate your timely response.

Thanks

Yes, they need to know about the earlier denial.
