Q.

H1B visa interview - Changed employer soon after entering US

I am on h1b with large US company.
I entered US onFeb24,08 on H1 with companyA(small consulting) but nvr worked there.
OnMar7,08 companyB filed my H1.I worked there till Dec2010 then my present employer filed my H1.
I am appearing for visa i/v in India next week.
Q: Can changing employer within 10days after entering US raise suspicion of visa fraud that I nvr intended to work for companyA?
Reason for changing employer-on reaching US companyA said they are looking for project for me & that I will be on bench till then(I have no way to prove this).CompanyB had shown interest in me earlier,so I reached them, i/viewed there & joined.
I nvr got h1 visa for companyB.I traveled out of US without issues on companyA’s visa and companyB’s I797.My wife got h4 visa with companyB without issues.
