Hi all,

I have attended my Visa interview last month and got 221g blue form. The V.O asked me to submit the requested docs at VFS office. The V.O also mentioned my Visa case ID on my 221g form. I have submitted my documents at VFS yesterday ( 20th, Nov).

I have checked the status of my case online and no information is available. I believe, I can check my status as I have my case ID or is it something like they will only update the case status if they issue 221g pink.

Your responses are greatly appreciated.

i would like to share about my experience at Chennai consulate.

whether it is chennai or any other consultate whether it is for visa inteview or any interview , the person who is interviewing will come to a impression within 20sec.

Please try to maintain eye contact with the interviewer.

VOI: iam issuing u visa you will recieve your passport in 5days by post.
Me: thanks a lot and happy thanks giving day Sir.

Be confident and keep all Doc's handy as and when needed produce it, donot present any DOC without Asking bcos it may lead to more ?'s leading to more trouble. Answer to the point i mean Simple donot use compllicated terms or technical terms more bcos we think they no nothing about technology but they are sitting there since very long and now each and every terms in tecnology.

But try to maintain EYE contact for sure.

Did anyone apply H1B in Frankfurt or with any other consulate in Germany? What is your experience?
How long did they take to issue the Visa?

Thanks,
Krrsh

It doesn't mean your visa got rejected.
When you drop off your documents and once the processing is done, VFS will ask you to send the passport.

Hi All,

My interview was scheduled at 11.30 AM on Friday Nov 16th 2007 at Chennai Consulate.

I reached there much early at 10.00 AM. There was no queue outside, so security let me in. I was asked to stand in a queue to verify documents. Since it was L1-B, they asked me to wait for the Demand Draft receipt. They kept my folder and asked me to wait. This happens in the first building. There you can see people are being directed to the second building for the interview. Noticed that many people came there without writing their names in their mother tongue and few had problems with the photograph. Looks like there is a studio nearby , so no need to worry..

I had to wait for 1 hour for my folder to be returned. One of the security guy wud call out our names and ask us to proceed to next building..

I reached next building by 11.15. Immediately all 11.15 and 11.30 slot people were asked to proceed. For finger print, watch out the video that they play in the room to know the right procedure..

L1-B candidates were asked to join a line on the other end of the finger print counter. L1-Regular and H1 had a different queue. Officer was a foreigner lady. she was really pleasant and friendly.. to my surprise she was asking the same questions to everyone. I could hear questions asked to 2-3 people standing in front.

Questions were:
1. How long are you working with X company?
Answered: X yrs
2. What are you gonna do in US?
Answered: So and so project, explained in 2 lines what it does.. thats it.
3. How good are you in this application?
Answered: I said i have been working in the same project from its start, day one..

She just repeated : Ok,,Day one.. and proceeded filling something in the computer and put seal on the paper..

Be prepared to talk without fear.. they are not techies and doesnt know abt ur project.. so dont worry what you are telling, be confident abt what you say..

Eg, they dont mind even if you say that Easytrive is a database.

All the best !! This site really helped me.. Thanks a lot
