Business Visa - B1

The first day at 11.30 my OFC was done.
The next day Visa Interview was at 9.30 am

I reached consulate by 9 am. Waited on a lengthy queue for 9.30. Then a consulate staff came and checked appointment confirmation letter and passport. The asked me to move on the next Queue which is near to the consulate entrance.

In the entrance itself they will check your appointment confirmation and check you.

After entering thru the Metal door, there were security guys again checking our file bundle and us.

Note : Please do not take mobile or proximity cards or pendrives or cds/dvds / bags. If you carry them they will ask you to leave it outside. There is a local person near to outside consulate wall who keeps our personal stuffs if some one bring these things.

After security checkups, i was asked to move on to the next building where the interviews are taking place.

 
There were small queues inside the building to be called inside.
After getting inside there are chairs to wait for your Interview Queue allocation.

I have waited around half an hour to get in a Interview counter.

There was a lady officer in the counter.

She was asking several documents to the guys in front of me, Some of them were explaining with a lot of details.
I was worried, what will happen to me.

At last the time has come.

I have reached near the counter.
