wrangler05 Posted February 12, 2013 Report Share Posted February 12, 2013 Hello guys, I have this strange never heard situation. After my masters in 2009 I filed my H1b petition with XXX employer and it was approved in 2010 Aug. I could not find a job, neither my employer supported me to find one. I was without running pay checks for over 10 months and after that I have transferred my H1 to a different employer. I got a job immediatley and was on payroll entire last year. Now I got a full time offer and succesfully transferred to a major american company and working FT with them for the past 2 months. I am planning to go for stamping in june 2013. I do not much hope but can anyone suggest if I will get my visa stamped ? Link to comment
deeps4u Posted February 13, 2013 Report Share Posted February 13, 2013 Yes, You can get stamped, as you go for stamping to your H1-B as FTE and in Canada if you go for stamping they will be asking the latest paystubs.and you have them for the last one year. So it wouldnt be a problem and all the best for your stamping. Thanks Sandeep Link to comment
catx Posted February 13, 2013 Report Share Posted February 13, 2013 You have a strange definition of "employer" that "could not find a job". Working for an employer is working on a job, and getting paid. I guess you meant a consulting contract not a "job". Regardless, an employer not paying for even 1 day is completely against the law, and because you were party to this fraud (even though you were the 'victim') you may well find that you are denied when you go for your visa stamping.

JoeF Posted February 13, 2013 Report Share Posted February 13, 2013 They can ask for all your paystubs from your time in the US. It is a bad idea to gamble that they won't. You need to discuss your situation with a good immigration lawyer! Link to comment
Attorney_25 Posted February 13, 2013 Report Share Posted February 13, 2013 You may want to review your facts with a qualified immigration attorney to determine what issues might arise. Link to comment
shekar11# Posted February 13, 2013 Report Share Posted February 13, 2013 Hey Wrangler, Everything should be fine for your stamping because you are a FTE. But the only issue will occur if VO asks you to produce all W2's from the starting of your H1-B. Link to comment

But the only issue will occur if VO asks you to produce all W2's from the starting of your H1-B. No that's not true. If you are a FTE it doesn't mean that you will get your VISA. In order to get VISA you need have a clean immigration record. Link to comment
