Me: I again tried explaining..But VO moved to next question.

(For this Question it is Gud if the answer is 1 liner since they dont understand the techincal stuff.)

Vo: What is your highest Degree?
Me: TOLD. ( For this question always tell with ur specialization )

Vo: Who is ur Client??
Me: ABC.

Vo: Is he ur end client?

1st time H1B (through Consultant) at New Delhi on 25Feb2011
Mine slot was 11:15 am, I reached there around 9 or 9.30 (does not matter what time you reach there but please be before 11:30 or 12:00, even if you miss your slot , they will call/entertain your appointment) then I wait under the tree shade, as they don’t have any sitting facilities, nor even for senior citizens , you can sit on the road side payment.
While you are waiting outside, you can deposit your electronics items at gate no 5, you can ask any security guard about this. Once you submit your items they will give you a token no. , now wait for your slot on road only, security guard will make slot announcement, and you will go on the other side road and make a queue , please take out your appointment letter and passport , make sure you don’t have any electronics gadget with you else they will put you out of the queue.
Then next step will be security checking (watches and wallets are allowed), then please take out your HDFC bank payment slip and online DS160 form , they will attach a white colour slip on your appointment letter (like C73 , P144 depends upon your visa category) , H1B guys will have C category token no. After waiting for some time ,you will enter the consulate hall.
Initial interviewers will be INDIANS, and will ask you about your DOB, place of residence, original petition copy and is it your first time visit to US and after that they will write a piece of code on your appointment letter, (they will staple your petition copy on passport and your appointment letter) After few steps there will be fingerprints section, she will ask you for your passport, once your finger prints are done you will wait for your token no. (This is the last step) , once your token no. is displayed, Consulate (American) will interview you (remember it will be standing interview , there will be glass partitioned)
1. Name
2. Is it your first time visit?
3. Highest Qualification?
4. Who is your employer?
5. How did you meet your employer?
6. Your consultant will deploy you at which client? And what is its name?
7. Where is your employer located?
8. What will you do after going there?
9. What have you done in past(IT experience)?
10. Current or past employer?
11. How many years your were associated with past employer?
12. upon checking my other stamped visas, he asked for what purpose you went to these countries?
13. Can I see your signed letter between employer and your client, while I was searching the letter in bunch of papers, he asked me to pass the full bunch of papers and he started seeing them, I can judge from his eyes that he was just going through those papers not examining them with interest.


At last he passed me the papers, except the passport and original petition paper.

"I am approving your visa and keeping your passport, you will get it soon, I said thanks, he said "best of luck”

Now fingers crossed and just waiting for my passport...

Be loud and specific, don’t speak too much and think...!!! And please don’t do AAhh ...
