Reg H4 Application after previous H1B Transfer denial

[rmg2013]

Hi
I will be applying for my H4 Visa in December 2013 after my court marriage.
I have been to United states before on F1 and H1B Status,
F1 Status 2006 -2007 and H1B status till February 2009.
I lost my job in Feb 2009 and I had applied for a H1B Transfer (Premium Processing) Shortly afterwards , the petition got denied in April 2009 after a query, me and my employer decided to appeal,
The decision was announced as denied in Aug 2009, after which I came back to India in September 2009. Have I overstayed in the US?
Will this stay from Feb 2009 to Sep 2009 ( when I was trying to get a H1B transfer approval) affect the H-4 decision at the consulate.

What proofs do I have to provide in case the consulate asks questions regarding the denial...

Also I am planning for a change of status to F1 shortly after I go to US, will i have any issues then?

Thanks in advance

Best Regards
RMG

-- That depends on your I-94 expiry date. You were out of status after the petition denial (April 2009) until you left the US.

Will this stay from Feb 2009 to Sep 2009 ( when I was trying to get a H1B transfer approval) affect the H-4 decision at the consulate. -- It will not affect.

What proofs do I have to provide in case the consulate asks questions regarding the denial... -- Denial notices, departure dates etc.

Also I am planning for a change of status to F1 shortly after I go to US, will i have any issues then? -- Should not be a problem.

Thanks in advance
