Hi,
I have a question to get clarified while filling H1B Visa stamping form (DS160).
I had a visitor's visa B1/B2 based on which I had visited U.S in Sep 2005 and again in Jul 2006,I got a job offer in U.S and then I had applied for a J1 Visa,when I went for my interview they have refused me a visa on 10 Aug 2006 and stamped in my passport that they have received my application.
Therafter I have got my H1b visa stamped on 11 Jun 2008 and I have been working in U.S since then. Now I have to go for my Visa extension stamping and I have an approved I-129. Please advise me if I have to mention that I have been refused J1 Visa earlier.
Thanks
