L1, L2 Visa

I attended L1A visa interview in Chennai this past week. Here is a synopsis of my experience at the interview center.

There was not much queue at the visa center. We were part of the first 15 - 20 people to report and most of the applicants were already inside. Post the mandatory checks we walked inside the complex.

First up, the cashier took demand drafts and issued a receipt which was followed by a document review and fingerprint identification. Then we were asked to wait for final interview. There were 15 - 20 other applicants waiting however we were bumped up the queue as we were with our young baby. After a wait of 10 minutes, we approached the VO.

VO : No greeting.
Me : Good Morning.

VO : (took my documents) What are you going to do in US?
Me : two word answer

VO : Who is your supervisor in US and his designation?
Me : two + two word answer

VO : How many people are in your team in USA?
