H1B Stamping Experience
I have been a silent visitor of this forum for a while now and I just wanted to share my experience.
I chose New Delhi consulate
Dec 22, 2014 - Finger Printing
It was a smooth process. Everyone talks to you very nicely and the lines moves fast. Just have your Appointment Confirmation, Passport and DS 160 ready to be presented. After initial check you will go inside and get a token number. My number was basically called as soon as I got a token. They take a picture and verify some basic details .. and thats it you're done! I was out in about 30 minutes.
Dec 23, 2014 - Visa Interview
Reached the consulate at 9.20am for a 10.00am appointment but they don't let you join the line till its time for your appointment. A guy checks your Passport and I-797 while you're waiting in line. In my case, I realized once I was in the line that I had brought a copy of my I-797 instead of the original. Anyway, once inside the consulate, they do a thorough security check. When I reached inside, they fingerprinted us again for verification purposes, after which we joined the line for the actual interview. When the VO called me, I went for the interview confidently. This is what happened at the window after initial exchange of pleasantries -
VO - Passport please (she was looking into her computer screen the entire time)
Me - Gave it to her. I-797 was stapled to it.
VO - Where are you going?
Me - xx
VO - What's your job title?
Me - xx
VO - How long have you held this position?
Me - xx
VO - Your visa is approved!
I had never been more relieved in my life. The whole process took 45 minutes from beginning to the end and it's very streamlined.
Good luck to all!
