Kolkata H1B Visa Experience
Hi All,
I have been following Imminhelp from past 1 month when my petition was filled,and absolutely I am benfited from Imminhelp since one question specific I got from the Immenhelp and was asked thrice in the interview and that is the only question he asked me and approved, So I am lucky.
And second thing Kolkata Exp , There are less number of posts here so I will explain how it goes in Kolkata.
I will be explaining the diff bw Chennai and kolkata consulates as i have visited Chennai once for B1 and it got approved.
Back grond....
I sent docs to Employer on Aug 10th and he filled my petition on Aug 17th after doing Eductaion Evalution under PP.
I got approved on Aug21st.
My Employer in India received I 797 on 6th Sep.
Since I am in Vacation fom 7th-14th, So I filled my DS 160 on 16th Sep. Interview was sceduled on 24 Sep Monday .
My Interview was on Monday 24th Morning 8 AM.
I hired a taxi from Salt Lake city to Hin Chin min for Kolkata Consulate.I reached there by 6:45 AM.
To my suprise like in Chennai no one was there outside. In Kolkata no worries as it is small street and u can get every thing near to it and if it is raining no issues they have shelter for it in the queue too.
I am the 5th member in the queue.
I was sent inside by 6:50 to my suprise.
In kolkata u can deposit ur mobiles and bags in securty person where he will give keys for drawer to deposit every thing so not like in Chennai where u have to throw them outside with no security.Security will give the token number mine is X.
After security Check U r sent to one open area where structure looks like DHABA HUT and u will be seated there. It is like Open theater.
There some 3 beches are there where they will call according to ur Token number for arranging docs. All Indains only.They are very helpful.
It is just 10 min and by 7 clock All my docs verification is done.
After that they asked to go into a small room
To My suprise it is just 400 Sq ft room where Ur Biometric and Interview will done in that room. In Chennai oohh god it is like a big Buildings.
5 Counters are for taking Biometric Finger prints 2 counters for Interview. Interview counters are seperated by small wooden peice.
10-15chairs for sitting and some books are there for reading.
I am called to take Biometric Finger prints and completed by 7:05 and Immedialtly one lady guided me for the Interview to the next counter,
In Kolkata there are young people who are helping like any thing.
Since My Token is X and there are couple of Families before me so by total i am 4th person for Interview.
Infornt of Me On H1B who was asked for 2 min and got Approved, When I have given Finger prints and went to Interviwer he is waiting for me.
