You just need to have your previous I797 approval notice, which would prove that you were previously counted against the cap. If you have worked in US on that H1 visa then you would need to provide the last 2-3 months’ US pay stubs as well. Rest all documents would be the same as what you had provided for your 1st H1. Since you are not in US right now, after the H1 approval you would need to get it stamped and you can come back here after the stamping. You do not need to wait till April '13 to file your H1.
Ankit “You may not be counted again in the cap if you had you H1 approved within last 6 years” this will be applicable even if H1 is revoked.As i came to know we need to file a fresh petition of H1 PLEASE reply me with correct info.
Any alien who has already been counted within the 6 years prior to the approval of a petition described in subsection (c), toward the numerical limitations of paragraph (1)(A) shall not again be counted toward those limitations unless the alien would be eligible for a full 6 years of authorized admission at the time the petition is filed. Where multiple petitions are approved for 1 alien, that alien shall be counted only once.
