Questions for H1 moving to H4, through CP
Hello,
I applied for H1B in April 2014 from within US while on H4.
Now my H1B is valid from Oct 2014 onwards.
I am wanting to go back to H4 due to some personal reasons.
My employer is not sharing the payslips with me yet. I am doubtful if he would share them.
I do know that COS would result in RFE without payslips.
I need to travel to India and planning to get my H4 stamped at the HYD consulate.
Would like your suggestions/comments/thoughts on the below questions please.
1. What are the chances of VO questioning about my H1 (I got approval in Oct and with in 3 months I'm moving to H4) and/or about me maintaining valid H1 status while in US.
2. When should I resign/inform my employer about my intentions to move to H4 (owing to the fact that already he is reluctant to share payslips and being non co-operative; I have no hopes if there is an RFE due to my H1 for my H4 application he would help me out with the required documents).
3. Would there be a RFE on my H4 application due to my H1B.
4. Is it ok to not have any of my payslips and go for H4 stamping. The only documents I have for showing me as an employee of XYZ company are offer letter, mail communications apart from H1 approved petition offcoz. I was not asked to fill out any time sheets or provided with the company email-ID; in case any of you suggest to complain to DOL do I have a valid case here?
5. Do any of you have successfully got your H4 stamped under the same circumstances(i.e.,no payslips & not complained to DOL for no pay/payslips) as me. What were the questions you were posed from VO?
Thanks for the time in reading through the post.
Appreciate if you could reply on these please.
Thanks
