  • H1 renewal Stamping (Mumbai): W2 Issue

    Hi Guys,
    I have been in US for around 6.5 years now (2 on f1, 1 on student EAD and 3.5 on H1). Everything is in order in terms of paper works except for one major thing. Last year's w2 has wages amount 7000 less than LCA amount. My employer is suggesting to go after June to reduce chances of being asked for w2. Its been 2.5 years since I have visited India and desperately need to go. How much is the risk in doing this? Is there any way I could explain the discrepancy? Lets say I get a 221g, in that case, is there anything that can be done?

    For one thing, I am getting a feeling that its not worth the wait. Because if I need to completely clean, I should go next year with this year's clean w2. But in that case, I have seen cases where candidates were asked for 2 years W2s.


    Its amazing how much this is bothering me. Last time I had to Mexico for stamping. that time I dont even remember if i was carrying all my tax documents and I wasnt asked a single question. Its only when you are unprepared, all soughts of fear creeps in. Currently I have a stable project and a written email from client for vacation approval.

    Please pass any information that may help me.

    thank you.

    Were you out of US anytime during the year? You may explain less pay as unpaid leave, you may also use any sick period. All this is needed only if asked for. There is a good chance that they will not ask about it.
    This is my opinion and not legal advice.

      Thanks dude. Unfortunately, none of this apply to my case. I was out of work for 6 months. We still generated 3 months payroll out of my pocket.

      Sick leave: how to substantiate this?
      Out of US: I was not out of US. Can i say i was in Mexico because they dont need Visa I guess.

      Basically, my employer is saying that visa will be rejected if they verify w2.

        Demand your employer for remaining pay then. You can also complain to DOL by filing WH4 form.
