L1, L2 Visa

Our interview was scheduled on 26 Oct, 8:30AM. As I have a 3 yr old daughter, we decided to use the VFS facility. We reached there at 7:45AM, and checked in. We had to wait until 9:30 before we were called to the bus. At the consulate, we were asked to bypass the queue (as we had a kid with us). We showed our papers, and stood in the queue for the 10-printing. An officer collected our passports and yellow envelopes. After the 10-printing,we had to wait for about 15 mins before we were called.
