I have my visa stamping in feb. Will it be a good idea to roll off a project now. If I am on bench when my visa interview happens, will it create problem? Dead bored of my role. But h1b is important:(

I had my interview in Dec in Mumbai and
was asked about my current project & client and how much time i spend at client site.

They don’t ask about your current project as you don’t work for the client. Take your paystubs with you

Same as EY2 in my case too.
To answer your question OP. Talking confidently and assertively is important with visa officer, whatever your situation bench or project.

I recently had my visa interview and I got a roll off before that. When asked about my client , I mentioned the last client that I had worked for. I got my visa approved in a week! You just got to be confident, and don’t mention that you’re on bench! That just invites unwanted questions.

I’ve seen a couple posts lately with comments saying that people should not use a Roth 401k. Does the logic below capture the spirit of that concept?
1. Use trad. 401k to reduce taxable income now. Convert to trad. IRA once retired, then convert gradually to Roth IRA (ladder, SEPP, etc.) at lowest marginal tax rate
2. Use Roth IRA (and/or backdoor Roth) to take advantage of tax free growth and ability to withdraw principal early without penalty
