H1-B Visa interview - Nov-15-2019 - white slip
Hello -

I had an H1-B Visa interview on Nov-15-2019, VO asked a few basic questions, Role/Employer/salary/work location /Fulltime or contract.

post-interview, VO took my passport and I did receive white slip.VO said my case should go through the Administrative process.( this slip was comparatively very small and there was no checkbox/information provided) I compared with regular white slips which will generally contain the whole list of options with checkboxes.

Should I consider this as a white slip? please suggest.

Thanks,

221 White Slip London
Attended the interview on 6th November. The interview went well. but it seems, it already pre-decided that i would get the white slip with no documents required. i work as FTE in TOP 5 MNC. The visa officer was more focused on the work location which somehow was not present in the employment verification letter. More than a week, no updates yet. I am even not sure the visa officer understood if this was not a new H1B and more of extension based on i140. Please share your experience.
