Here is my case.:

-- I was on H4.

-- Got H1B in Oct. 2008.

-- Was on a bench (didnt have any pay stubs,employer didnt pay me.)

-- Changed my status back to H4 in April 2009.

-- Now i got an offer as a agency employee for fortune 500 company and they already filled COS H4-H1 and H1B transfer for me.

Now my questions are -

1. What are the chances of getting RFE regarding pay stubs?

2. What should i do, since i dont have any pay stubs for that 6 months when i was on bench?

3. Can i ask my employer to pay me now for the period when i was on bench? Its been more than 2 years now.

Thanks pontevecchio for your reply.

1. Unlikely. They may need your spouses pay stubs.

-- I have already provided my spouses pay stubs.

2. Nothing much you can do.

3. Good luck with that. Just move on.

-- I have good relations with my previous employer. Can he pay me for that 6 months now? what about taxes in that case?
