L1, L2 Visa

All,

My L1-B Blanket got approved. I had a interview on 9th oct (OFC) and 10th oct (Visa interview) at Chennai with my wife and 4 year old kid. Already in recent post people have posted new process and it is very much same and very useful. Just wanted to highlight few things.

=> Make sure you create your profile on http://www.ustraveldocs.com/in/ with firstname: given name and lastname: surname as per passport. During OFC I saw some people had a problem with this and they were sent back and asked to correct the name as per passport and reschedule the interview. In case you have created profile with Preferred name, you can submit the request online in the website and they get it corrected in 48 hrs I guess. I did this correction.
=> Kids with less than 1 year only get the priority token.
=> Don’t go before 30-40 mins of your time as they don’t allow to get in and you need to wait outside on the road in hot climate and you surely with get suntan 
=> Make sure your kid wear their choice of dress as they need to spent around 1-2 hours inside and they will go crazy easily as my 4 year old son was asking chocolates, ice-creams etc..which you don’t get inside.
=> There is drinking water available every stage and rest-room for you to relax :-)
=> I took L1-B Blanket DD in favor of “US Consulate General, Chennai” and they accepted it.

Visa officers are really cool ,easy going and they try to make sure candidate feels as comfortable as possible.

My interview:
VO: Good Morning man.. How are you doing ?
Me; Thanks sir. Am good how are you ?
VO: Cool.
VO: So you work for YYYY and L1-B blanket.. cool..
Me: yes sir.
VO: Don’t worry. Everything will be alright. Don’t worry.
Me: Thank sir.
My wife was standing little far behind me and was looking after my son as he become crazy.
So VO told my wife while typing on his screen. : Madam come forward. Don’t be scared. There is a glass in between for your protection and we all had a laugh. :-)

VO: So whats your designation
Me: Software Engineer
Vo: Where are they sending you ?
Me: ZZZ
VO: How much they are offering you in US ?
Me: xxx
VO: Whats your specialization ?
Me: told in 1 line for 10-15 sec.

Again did something on his comp and kept on saying “Don’t worry. Everything will be alright. Don’t worry”
And finally he stamped my I - 129S with approved stamp for 3 years and handed over to me 2 copies, kept all 3 passport and 1 copy with him and said it will be delivered at your doorstep in 3-4 days.

Me; thanks and have a good day.

Hardly it was for 1-2 min.
My company is US based Product company with HQ in CA and with execellent reputation.

Don’t worry guys. I think most of the cases were approved. No need to panic or worry. Everything will be alright.

Good luck guys.
