In between VO lady was typing many things. And she searched one green form and put in one passport. I thought she is inserting refusal letter in passport. Then she typed for many seconds. We were silent. Looked at eachother. And then she broke the ice. Ok I am approving for you (wife) and son. You can collect your passports in the evening. And for you, you have to provide this information (green paper) as soon as possible.
She gave my passport back to me. She kept two passports (wife and son).
After receiving my passport, We started moving out of that building and thinking what happened. Then while going home in auto, we were reading that form. After reaching home, I discussed that form with three people, sent them its pics. Searched in net. We came to know it is green paper, request for more information against section 221g. They are unable to take decision. They want more info about me. Like my detailed CV, job responsibilities, research I have done till date. Last 10 years, countries visited and purpose and research I did if any. Abstract of all papers and their practical application. Itinerary of travel to USA. Which research I am going to conduct etc?
we gave Blue dart panaji address to collect passports. Our interview was on 04 april 2016. And passports reached Goa, panaji on 05 april morning. I didn’t have any idea that passports will reach so early. So I didn’t check status till 9 april evening. When I checked, I talked to Panaji blue dart courier office. They said they will send it back in 8 days. So they were going to send it back on 13 april. So I took my wife and son, hired taxi on Monday 11 april. And gave adhaar card for wife, school icard for 6 years old son. Xerox and my wife signed and collected. (please note, no other person can collect passports other than self) That was 10 years multiple entry visa.
Actually it is very easy to collect passports from Mumbai VAC itself. As they give same day in the evening. VAC is the office where we gave our biometric data. In that building only there is a counter facing outside the building. There is a short queue. Easy to get it.
My case was still pending. I sent all info asked on april 10. Waiting.
I was expecting some information from website after 15 calendar days. But it came after 17 working days. On 28 april, 2016 I received email to submit passport. They asked some documents too (passport, print of this email asking to submit passport, letter or paper I got during interview (which was actually not asked in email- that was surprise for me at the drop box counter in Mumbai and thank GOd I carried some extra documents), two copies of manually filled form). The form was downloaded from the link provided in the email. That form was just an acknowledgement slip which will be signed by VAC when I will be submitting the form. If they ask any other document, you can come out and in the same building there is an office like shop. They provide computers, net, coffee restaurant and lockers etc. you can download from your email or ask your friend to mail you.
I submitted my passport on May 4, 2016. My VISA was issued and my passport reached Panaji Blue dart office on & May. I collected it on 9th May. It was one year multiple. The persons who are asked to submit 221g, they usually get 1 year visa only first time. Next time they are likely to get 10 year visa.
So from my view point following things are most important
Truth, Read DS 160 form. If possible fill DS 160 form in details. As much as possible. Otherwise they will ask for more information as in my case.
Travel history to good country
Answer the question asked, precisely.
Never ever answer the question with question. Like how can I leave him. How can I do that etc. Try to make your situation understand by positive and precise words.
Always apply with wife/husband and children.
Read immihelp experience about 40 pages.
Good luck.
