L1 B Visa Experience
First of all, thanks to all the forum members who have shared their experiences. Those helped me a lot.

I had my OFC interview in my own city Hyderabad, on 12th August, which was pretty simple and straight forward.

For L1 stamping I flew to Chennai for an appointment scheduled at 10:30 am on 14th August.

I arrived consulate office at around 8:15 am and was bit surprised to see long queue ~100 applicants waiting on both the side of entrance parallel to main road. The queue was only increasing, I never saw it shrinking, even when I was done with my interview.

I won't be writing much about this worst waiting experience, but just would like to tell, my turn came at around 12:10, you can now imagine how this works.

Anyway, coming to interview, after getting token and submitting the 500\$ DD, I was asked to wait again, (no token ordering, my token was not even flashing on screen). At last at around 12:45, I was asked to stand in a small queue in front of one window.

Two persons were ahead of me, unfortunately their VISA didn't get approved.

My turn :-

VO : Good Morning
ME : Good Afternoon (Yes it was around 1 o' clock)

VO : Which company you work for ?
ME :

VO : Will you be working foo any client ?
ME : No, I'll be working for my parent company.

VO : Sorry, which client ?
ME: Parent Company, Sir
VO: Oh, parent company, Gotcha you

VO: So, what's your Specialization ?
ME:

VO: What you'll be doing in US ?
ME:

He started stamping my 3 sets of document and after a while, he said your VISA is approved, kept my passport, and returned 2 sets of documents to me.

Some opinion of my own :
a. Questions asked should have answers that matches your provided documents.
b. Straight forward answers with confidence put more weight on approval side.
c. Lack of confidence is bad, at the same time over-confident is "really" bad.
d. Visa Approval is all about the VO's state of mind.
e. Don't get frustrated if VISA is not approved, its not an end of Life.
f. Seeing the unending long queue at Consulate, only one thought comes up, why USA ? Probably its a trend/dream for all IT/non-IT professionals :P
