  • H1 blue slip from Mumbai with comments

    on 28th I got 221(g) blue slip from Mumbai.

    It asked for additional corporate documents to be submitted at VFS along with passport.

    Since they have asked for the passport along with the documents is there any hope to get it stamped earlier ?

    The time that will take to resolve a 221g is unpredictable. There are cases where they have retained the passport during the interview and it has taken over 3-4 months to get a decision. There are also cases where the 221g got cleared within 2 weeks.

      My employer told me that they will be submitting the extra documents directly to the consulate. because of the confidential status of the documents asked for. But the VO asked ME to submit the documents at the VFS. So do you think whatever my employer doing is a right thing ?

        Yes. Lot of employer directly submit the documents to the consulate as they are confidential documents. This is not an issue. They will directly courier the documents to VFS.

          Thank you for the reply.

          My original petition is premium processed. Does this will affect the 221g processing ? My employer says it will be faster in case of premium processing.

              That is sad. what kind of documents they asked, from petitioner or applicant ?

              I doubt if they would change their decision seeing a travel itinerary.

              anyway pl keep posting with the updates.

                Is it possible to take an Fresh interview after we recive the 221(g) Blue form?
                This form neither shows any approval or Rejection.Since we will have all the documents required by the blue form as well as the other supporting documents,is it possible to do? instead to getting stuck with our passports with them ( i have immediate travel plans)!!

                  not sure about that. in my form it is printed in caps DO NOT take new appointment. I think they will have all the track of applications using a passport.

                    Do the Consulate let us know what additional documents are required? If so, why are people hesitant about mentioning the documents they were asked for? That might atleast save pain for some of us.

                    Please share the list of additional documents the Consulate asked for if possible.
