16th Oct 2019 - Appeared for Biometrics
17th Oct 2019 - Appeared for Interview, received 221g-Yellow slip. VO asked to re-submit only the updated client letter as he want to know if there is still a requirement. May be in submitted copy had backdated travel dates.
23rd Oct 2019 - Submitted the document
30th Oct 2019 - Client confirmed that USCIS reached out to them for verification
Case is still showing AP with last updated date of 17th Oct 2019. Not sure how much time more would be require to conclude the process as client wants me to join from 1st Jan 2020.
07th Jan 2020 - Got email to submit passport
08th Jan 2020 - Sent Passport to consulate
16th Jan 2020 - Case status changed to Issued
18th Jan 2020 - Received stamped Passport
I think here is no timeline based on what color 221g slip you get. As i have met my colleagues who got same 221 color slip asking for same document but they received stamping within 2-3 weeks, mine took 3 months LOL :D.
Cheers !!

BlueDart did not deliver or reach out, documents got returned to the consulate office in Chennai.
I went in person to collect documents and passport, was handed over my passport along with a 221g blue sheet which mentioned I need to attend an in-person interview. Since I believed I had all the documents, I went in for the interview with my documents.
I was questioned about my employment and documents that were sought in the form. I was then handed another form for documents.
I went the day after to submit the document to the consulate and I was told that I need to come between 10-11 am and was returned and the next day was Friday so they would not collect the documents.
I went on the very next Monday 01/06/2020, I was told I should be submitting documents in a VFS / VAC center (3 days lost there). The passport was not collected during the submission, upon asking was told I would get instructions over email. No updates yet so far.

Hi everyone,
My case: H4 to H1B transfer
Interview date: Nov 25, 2019
I was handed a yellow slip with a request for further documentation. I was carrying all the documents but guess the counselor needed them to be emailed directly to the consulate by my employer.
Documents submitted: Dec 2, 2019, delayed by a couple of days due to Thanksgiving holidays
Its been close to 5 weeks...no updates.
The call center provides a very prescriptive response to call back only after 180 days have been exhausted. Canceled my return ticket. I thought I had kept sufficient time in between interview and return flight...
No idea how long this wait is going to be. The uncertainty is very disturbing. Guess the only thing one can do is wait.
Any idea what kind of email id will the communication be sent from if the consulate emails an applicant? Thanks for the help!
