H1B/H4 experience
Came back to India in May due to family emergency. Filled up DS 160 in May. Couldn't get a visa appointment date until September 25th.
Qualified for interview waiver. Fingerprint not required (had I known this my wife wouldn't have had to accompany me as I could have submitted documents myself)
1. (Thursday)Went to VFS OFC site. Stood in queue with my bag and mobile phones for about 5 minutes until my turn came.
2. Submitted documents for H1B and H4. (one copy of all your documents required for H1 and for one H4. I only had one copy but the OFC lady went and did another set of copies from me).
3. Submitted NIE letter. Kind lady made a copy of that too.
Next Monday- visa status changed to 'No status' , then to 'Administrative Processing' next day, and then 'Issued' the day after. Received an email from consulate saying NIE has been approved.
All NIE's are approved for multiple entry within the next 12 month period. (That 30 day entry rule has been scrapped since July). If there are no travel restrictions in place next year, your visas are valid for reentry for normal 3 year period.
