H1B stamping in Vancouver, CA (30-Sept-19)
Hi Everyone,

My turn for sharing visa stamping experience.

Here are my updates for the Stamping experience in Vancouver, CA.
Date/Time: 09/30/2019 - 09:15

Reached Embassy at 09:00AM, was in a hotel nearby so 10 mins walk.
There were around 50 applicants ahead of me, so took around 20 mins to get in.

Pit-Stop 1: Document Verification DS-160 - took around 10 mins wait + 2 mins processing
Pit-Stop 2: Fingerprinting was quick

Finally for interview on 20th Floor, wait time for around 20 mins, and couple of minutes with VO
Basic Questions asked:
1) Who is your Employer
2) Who is your Client (i am on EVC)
3) What Tech do you work on
4) Where is your office located
5) Are you paid competitively
6) Visa is approved and Rights pamphlet given.

Total time from Queuing in to getting out is approx 90 mins.

Got email for "Issued" on 10/02/2019 and passport collection on 10/03/2019.
Took flight back home on 10/04/2019, with Immigration done on Vancouver Airport itself.

All of my Waiting Days, i stayed in North Vancouver (Hotels are not that expensive) and Downtown is commutable by Public Transport. Lots of places to explore around by local bus in North Vancouver.

Rented the Car on 3rd to pickup passport , trip to Whistler, and then Dinner Buffet at "Tandoori Flame". Returned the car at Airport on 4th.

All the best for aspiring candidates.

Thanks
Nikk
