My B1 Visa experience
I have applied for B1 visa and my interview happened in New Delhi. I have paid VISA fee on Tuesday and scheduled an appointment with Visa application Centre on Thursday and US Consulate on Friday.
Day 1- Visa Application Centre (11:30AM) - There is nothing to worry about here. Do not carry bundle of documents this day. You only have to carry DS-160 form, Appointment letter and your passport. You might want to carry your visa fee receipt if needed. Once you inside, they will give you token number and you have wait for your token number. Once your token number arrive than you will need to give your fingerprints and photo will be taken by them. Max time: 25-30 minutes which was there in my case as there were lot of applicants.
Day 2- US Consulate (8:30AM) - Reach 15-20 minutes early, there is no use if you arrive early. They will not make you enter in the premises before than that. Once you inside, you will be asked to sit and make a line to verify your fingerprints which you given on Day 1. After that, you will be front of interview officer. My experience as follows:
Q1. Why you want to travel to US?
A1. Business Meetings (Exact answer)
Q2. How many days?
A2. 7 days.
Q3. Why you are only going for Business meetings?
A3. xxx reason
Q4. With whom are you employed?
A4. xxx company
Q5. Since how long?
A5. xxx years
Q6. What is your current post?
A6. xxx post
Q7. What you do in current job?
A7. xxx role. Explained a little bit in two sentence.
Ok, Your visa is approved. You will receive an email once your visa is ready for pickup. They have not asked for any documents from me except passport. But I did carried Bank statement, form 16, invitation letter, hotel confirmation letter, my employer confirmation letter.
Some Tips:
-Do not say what you decided already (like 1-2 days). Speak freely/natural.
-Do not hide anything from them. Speak the truth.
-Wear nice formal dress if you are going for B1 Visa. (Formal Suit preferred)
-Greet officer with nice smile even if you are nervous and try to calm during the interview.

My Experience
I had applied for B1 and my interview happened at Chennai.
there will be security checks at all the levels through out. please don't carry mobiles, bags etc. carry your documents in a simple and transparent file.don't carry documents in a closed envelopes. they will send people to go out of office to open it. there was a guy who has been shouted at and asked to go out to open.
Day 1 - OFC - There nothing to be tensed about this. you just arrive at the OFC for your biometrics atleast 45 minutes before your appointment. My appointment was at 8.30. I reached there at 7.45. there is a big queue on the footpath beside the OFC office. they started allowing people from 8.15. have your Passport, DS-160 confirmation page and Appointment letter handy. in the OFC they had alloted a token number. when my turn came, just went there and gave my fingerprints and photo has been taken.
Day 2 - US Consular office - My appointment was scheduled at 7.30AM. I arrived there by 6.30AM and by that time there was a huge queue outside of the consular office. there were around 70+ people already. I just joined the queue. at around 7.20 they started moving the line. there are several security checks all the way. you will be alloted with ticket number for interview. even in the main hall there insufficient seats to sit before your turn comes. there you'll be checked with your finger print scanning again before interview.
there are several tv monitors that shows the ticket/token numbers and counter. when my ticket is appreared on the screen i just joined the line at that counter.
I am sharing a couple of experiences here. One is my own and another is one of the guy's experience who was before me in the interview.
Other Guy before me, he came for Student VISA F1. the officer has played with him with some different questions.
1. Why do you want to do Masters?
2. your bachelors degree pass percentage is low, do you think, you can clear master's in US with these skills?
3. what if you can't clear your backlogs?
4. What alternatives you have, if you can't clear the Masters?
and more.
Mine
Me - Good morning
Officer - Good morning, passport please.
Officer - Why are you going to the US?
Me - Technical training.
Officer - for which company are you working for?
ME - XYZ name.
Office - Sorry, come again
Me - Repeated.
Officer - for How long is your visit?
Me - One week.
Officer - Are you going to a client's place or your internal?
Me - Internal.
Officer - (was typing something) Ok, Have a good trip.
Me - Thank you.
I silently moved out from there.
Tips:
1. please be prepared for all kinds of questions.
2. prepare that you may face the worst case scenario.
3. don't carry anything else other than your documents in a transparent file and a wallet if needed.
4.even if you are nervous, hold it. you need not to show any confidence/smile but have a normal face without any nervous.

B1 visa rejection under section 214(b)
I was in USA from 2006-2011, in J1 and then in H4. Now I have changed my field from research and have started a business in my hometown. For that I wanted to attend a trade show in USA and applied for B1 visa. The interview was as follows:
VO : Good morning. Show me your passport.
Me: Good Morning. Gave him the passport343
VO: Why you want to go to USA?
Me: Answered
VO: What is your highest qualification?
Me: Answered
VO: What kind of business you have?
Me: Answered
VO: How many people are employed in your business?
Me: Answered
VO: What does your husband do? And how old is your kid?
Me: Answered
VO. Are you going for a trade show?
Me: Yes
VO: Are you going to sell your products there?
Me: Yes
Then VO took my fingerprint, and asked me to wait. After waiting for 45 minutes, he called me and handed me back the passport and 214(b) form and explained me that he cannot grant me visa, as I cannot go to USA at this point to sell my products and make money in USA.
Can I reapply for B1 visa within a week? Or shall I apply for a B2 as I really want to attend the trade show. Or will it be wise not to apply again now?

B1/B2 Accepted after one Rejection - Delhi
First, I would like to thank immihelp for helping me in my B1/B2 preprations :-)
My visa was rejected last year June 2013 and I re-applied in June-2014. The purpose of my visit in both the cases was a conference in Vegas.
My first Visa experience in June 2013:
Why are you going to US: I need to attend a conference
Who all are going with you: Only me
Why only you: answered something (I was not confident here)
What is your age: 24
When have you joined the company: May 2013 (just a month before)
Counselor: Sorry, I cant grant you Visa as you are too new to the company and handed me 214 (b)
My second Visa experience in June 2014:
Why are you going to US: I need to attend a conference in Las vegas
For how many days: 9 days from <X> to <X>
What is your job role: <told>
What is your salary (asked twice): First told monthly salary and then told yearly ("EXACT" salary and not rounded!)
For how many days are you going to US (again!): 9 days from <X> to <X>
Counselor: Visa ho gaya! (In Hindi :-P)
I was wearing formal suit with tie and was posing fully confident this time. My answers were precise w/o the use of words like around/maybe/ probably/. He did not ask me anything about my previous rejection. Also the counselor even did not check any documents apart from my passport.

B1 Visa experience at Mumbai
OFC appointment : Just go there and get it done. They take your finger prints and a photograph. Took me 15 mins.
Some Tips :
* There is notice board that says "Currently serving appointments for 3 p.m."(3 p.m. is just an example). If that matches with your appointment time, get in the queue.
* Only 3 documents are required. Your passport, DS-160 conformation, appointment confirmation. Don't carry bundle of documents with you. That would be necessary for VISA appointment.
VISA Appointment : It was over within a minute
Interviewer : Good Morning.
Me : Good Morning (with a smile on my face)
Interviewer : Who is inviting you to the U.S.?
Me : Told name of the company in the U.S.
Interviewer : Is it your client?
Me : No, I work for same company India office (he gave me a big nod, I knew my passport was approved)
Interviewer : What do you do there?
Me : Explained my work in 1 sentence.
Interviewer : How long have you being working with this company?
Me : for 2 yrs 7 months.
Interviewer : How long are you going to stay in the U.S.?
Me : 4 weeks.
Interviewer : What are you going to do there for 4 weeks?
Me : Meeting with our xyz people(designations not names) in the U.S. office and....(didn,t let me complete)
Interviewer : Sir, your VISA is approved, you can collect your passport in 4 days. Thank you.
Me : Thank you very much.
Some Tips :
* when you reach the consulate, there may be a long long queue. Does not mean that you have to stand at the end of it. People towards the end of queue may have appointment for 10 a.m. If your appointment is at 9:30 a.m., you have to go forward and find people with appointment for 9:30 a.m. and stand with them.
* Greet officer with a big smile. Don't give him your grin look.
* Be confident(appear confident even if your are shaky inside). Answer to the point. Use short sentences. Don't explain unnecessarily(gives an impression that you are trying too hard to convince him). If officer wants he will ask for explanation.

B1 visa got approved, need to know if I have to travel within a given period
Hi,
My B1 visa is approved and I have received my stamped passport. But, due to unfortunate circumstances i have to cancel my travel plan for now and would be able to travel only after start of next year.
Is there a period within which one needs to travel to US after B1 visa is approved, at least once, after which the visa may expire?

B1 Visa Experience
First of all I would like to thank immihelp.com, which helped me to prepare for the B1 Visa.
Coming towards my experience, here it is.....
OFC
This was scheduled on 17th April 2014 at 1:30 AM. I went around 30 min earlier and had to stand in queue.
Carry only the below documents-
Appointment letter, Visa Fee Receipt and DS160 confirmation letter from VFS.
(One very important point, the Name you have to fill on the DS160 form is as per your Passport. If it not as per the Passport, we need to retrieve the DS160 Form, make necessary changes and take print again. So please be careful)
After the security check and document verification, a label will be fixed on our Passport and we will be directed for Biometrics, which will be completed in next 5-10 minutes.
US Consulate Interview
This was scheduled on 23rd April 2014 at 10 AM.
Reach 1 hr before. Be in formals if you are going to B1 Visa.
Only document which was required for B1 Visa were the DS160 form with stamp which I got from OFC.
But I had carried few documents (Appointment Letter, Invitation Letter, Visa Fee receipt, IT Retrun File, Bank Satement)
After the security check, I was directed to counters, where the interviews were in process. The only document checked was the DS160 Form (with stamp) and nothing else.
The candidate before me was rejected, I was nervous from inside but tried to be confident while giving the answers
VO: GM
Me: GM Officer
VO: What is the Purpose of your Visit
Me: Product Training
VO: Whats your Company Name
Me: ABC Inc
VO: For How many days
Me: 1 week
VO: What is your Designation
Me: ABC Manager
VO: What is your Salary
Me: XX INR monthly (He tried to calculate for annual, but I quickly responded and mentioned YYYY INR annually)
VO: Thank you Gentleman, your Visa is approved and you can collect within 3-5 days.
Within a minute I was super excited.
Tip: Be prepared. Refer Immihelp & Rest is your luck.
