L1, L2 Visa

Hi All,

Thank you all for sharing your exps. It really helped...

Sharing my exp :

I had interview on 30th Nov but due to this additional fees i got 221g and we went back on 7th Dec with new fees.

at 9am they collected our documents from outside..and gave us token...asked to come around 11am...

11.30 we were in and after 10 mins our numbers was called...

Since they collected fingerprints etc on 30th only we were directly called for interview...

Me : Good Morning m'am...
There was no response from VO she kept working on her comp...
After some time..she looked at my son and asked...
VO : How old is he?
Me : 4 months...

Then there were all those questions which are linked with L1B

Company?
Which project?
How long in company & project?
Designation here and there?
Role here and there?
why you ? why not some1 else?
Whats so special in your skills...

my wife...
since when you are married...

During all this there were few occasions where I had to ask her to repeat the question as I was not able to hear her properly...

I would suggest all those who are waiting for D day.. note following

- Know your application,documents in and out...
- prepare well
- Understand that these are NIV visa....

Major part is God's blessing and wishes or your elders and well wishers... All the best...

yes YYYY same for me ..i recieved L2 visa for my wife ... but didn't got my passport yet ...

My L1/L2 VISA interview was on 30th Nov, and my VISA approved and I am expected to receive my passport within a week. Still, I have not received my passport and it is not yet handed over to the VFS.

How can I track the passport and can I call any enquiry numbers and find out ?

Dear guys.

Recieved Visa today which kept on hold due to Border security Fee issue.

I had my interview on 29th nov in Hyderabad. The interview was straight forward. I even had the letter from my company regarding the new Fee structure.
He said 'Your visa is approved and u will received the passport within a week'

I was not given any colored form or any other form, which they generally give if they need some more processing to be done.

I havent received my passport till now. The passport has not been handed over to VFS till now.

Any idea whats going on ? how can I track the status of my passport in the consulate ? Should I call them up ?
I have mailed them but no reply.

Any one facing the same problem ?

I got my L1 B visa today!!!

Hi,

My Visa interview was on 2nd Dec,2010 scheduled @11:45am. However, I was @1:30PM I had to face the interview with the consular. It was pretty easy and thanks for immihelp. Here are the question, I had to face:

1) Why do you need to travel to US?
I have to integrate, our company framework solution ABC with client application XYZ.

2) Who is the client?
xyz

3)How does this integration help the client?
With this integration, client will be in a position to offer access full life cycle data to users at single location.

4) Where did u work before to current company?
def for 2yrs

5) before that?
pqr for 1.5yrs

6) Whats ur salary?
I wasn't sure, whether he was asking for current or US salary, therefore I said:"Current salary with ABC is 123lacs/annum"

for 30secs he was looking at this monitor and then came the golden words.

Hi Guys,

To all the guys who are under going this situation here am sharing my experiences.

My interview was scheduled on 22nd of Nov and after completing interview they retained my passport and asked me to pay $2250 under new rule 221(g) and lettter from the company.

I submitted the DD $2250 on 26th of Nov in VFS office they took only DD + 221(g) form which they gave to me.

Dec 4th I got my passport with stamped VISA on it. Thank god I got VISA after so much of confusion.

Hi All,

I have my L1 visa interview scheduled in a couple of days, but I have one serious confusion arising. Please try n help.

I had a previous L1 Individual stamping & I have travelled to US twice from my previous company. Now my new company has a blanket approval & they have filed a L1 blanket visa for me. I am a CIVIL engg graduate with more than 6.5 years of exp now in IT field. I am not really sure if I can go for a L1 blanket given my non CS background. I guess that precisely was the reason my previous organization has filed Individual visa for me.

Can someone please throw some light on this & what kind of questions I can get to face at the consulate regarding this.

Thanks for you help & replies.
