Chnnai-consulate - successful-Oct 11
All, I've been following the experiences posted in this site for quite sometime and it is time for me to post mine-
After the prescreening and fingerprinting,which took about 45 minutes, I was asked to go to a counter where there was an young lady.
VO: Good afternoon Sir, How are you?
Me: Doing good. Thx. How about you?
VO: Fine. Thx. Who is your petitioner?
Me: xxxx
VO: What do they do?
Me: provide IT solutions and went on to explain further......
VO: Ok..Ok..(impatiently)..What is your highest degree.?
Me: Mechanical engineering Bachellors
VO: Total work experience and with what company?
Me: 6 years with xxxxx
VO: Give me your degree certificate and experience proofs
Me: Handed
She went in probably to get them checked and cam back in 2 minutes
VO: Ok Sir, your VISA is approved. well done. You will get your passport in 3 days
Me: Thx so much.
My observations:
1. Unlike in the past, there is no insistence on the end client letters or the internal project product market analysis
2. Success rates are very high at Chennai consulate
3. It seems like there is a drive at the consulate to clear VISA applications quickly. Not much time is spent by the Visa officers with the candidates
4.Confident and precise answers will help. Don't try to be very descriptive
5. Visa applicants should qualify for the H1b speciality occupation either by educational qualification or by professional experience. Non computer education backgrounds, prepare to prove by professional experience
One final advice to VISA seekers - please don't put up unnecessary queues outside the consulate. Just be there before 15 minutes. Chennai is usually a hot place and there is no shelter outside the consulate.
