My company decided to send me USA for training and applied for my visa.

On 1st dec 2015 my office Travel desk filled online DS160 form for me and paid the fees

It should have taken 2-3 days as per the information provided on US TRAVEL DOCS

but my application was activated On 19th Dec 2015

then my travel desk associate took appointment for me on 22nd dec 2015 for biometric and

finger prints and photos and was done for that day.

Gone for my interview on 5th jan 2016 morning at 8:45 am although my appointment timing was

10:00 am i waited in queue which was long nearly 100 people were waiting before me for

their interview, then waiting after 1 hr entered in interview centre where at one window

they cross checked my finger prints and photo which was taken at biometric centre then

again got into the queue waiting for my turn for interviewed there were nearly about 6 to 7

Me : On the occasion of the launch of a new product

Me : being a senior resource in my team, and have a deep understanding of the current

existing product.

VO : What do you do
Me : i am a quality analyst and my job is to audit the work done by the agents in my

company

Handed over my passport to me with a form which stated 221(G) additional documents required

VO : Okay you will need to submit Police certificate from your regional passport office

along with your passport and the 221(G) form given to you
Me : Okay thank you

on that day itself i reached my regional passport office where i got info that to obtain a

police certificate you need to apply online

Researched on internet about how to obtain police certificate and then was really very

worried coz information was you can obtain your Police certificate either in one day or

might it take long time if police verification is needed and the approx time was 3 to 4

weeks or may be 6 weeks

so one of my friend told me to take help of agent

i contacted the agent asking him to help me to get me Police certificate coz i have very

less time to get my visa to fly USA

he has taken a good amount from me and applied for me on 6th jan and on the same day

evening i got my appointment confirmation for police certificate

on 7th i reached regional passport office for my appointment with all the documents stated

by the agent

where on first counter i got my coupen code and there was 3 counters A B and C

on A counter i got my photo clicked and documents submitted

On B counter the person told me that you will need to submit an affidavit coz you are

married and you dont have your spouse name on your passport although i had a nikah nama

which is a marriage proof for me he didnt accepted it alone he said you will need to submit

and affidavit which is annexure D along with your nikah nama

i then told my agent that they are asking me annexure D then my agent told me to come

tommorrow i will make it for you dont worry

on 8th jan again i gone for my Police certificate at regional passport office with all my

documents where they have given me a receipt stating police verification is needed

i told my agent about this then he suddenly backed of now stating for that you will need to

struggle at your nearest police station now to get it done

then on 8th jan itself my file was reached at my nearest police station

on 9th i directly gone to meet police verification officer to get it done immediately

he confirmed me that he will do it in 2days dont worry please submit all the required

documents

i submitted all the documents then and there and on 11th jan my police verification was

done at my home by his officer visit

but after that i thought it was done i waited for 2 days but was calling the officer many

times and going at police station as he was not picking up my call he then told me after 2

days that his senior police officer sign is pending so before that he cannot forward the

file to regional passport office

every day i use to go to police station asking whether it is done or not but every time the

officer told me that the sign is pending i even told him do you need money he said no he

does not have it in his hand to get the sign done coz the senior officer is busy

then after 2 weeks of my struggle my dad got a reference through which i got a sign talking

directly to senior officer explaining her how imp it is for me to get this verification done

i got the file singed by her and then on 18th jan i got sms to collect the Police

certificate

on 19th jan i got my police certificate in morning and that day it self i submitted it at

Visa centre

on 21st jan i checked my online status of visa application which stated issued i was still

confused and also got email to collect my passport which is returned form consulate to VAC

centre

on 22nd jan 2016 i reached VAC centre to collect my passport with a copy of my pancard

waited in a queue for my turn and then i collected my passport on which there was a visa

stamped for USA for 10 years that was the day all my hard work got success
